Just saw the match and many kudos to Jamilia! It's only her first year out, but she wrestles like someone with three or four years under her belt.

She's quickly becoming a favorite of mine, so talented.

She got some favourable reviews in this weeks F4W newsletter, but said her punches need some work. Considering she's so new, I think that's fair.
Not seen the match yet... but I'll catch it later.

I find few punches in wrestling to be that good anyway, especially with female wrestlers. I'd prefer if they just avoided them in favour of chops and forearms or something.

Well, don't forget, closed-fist punches are illegal in wrestling anyway. So maybe it's a good thing the wrestlers aren't that good at it.  |

Another reason I think they should always be avoided. It's not boxing after all.

I loved this match so much. Daizee always puts on a strong showing. If I wouldn't know that Jamilia just started in the business, I would never think she was a rookie. I think she has got a lot of talent and can't wait to see matches to come......and I LOVE her look.

Jamilia needs to avoid that Tiger Suplex at all costs. It has been her undoing twice against her trainer that I have seen.

Not bad at all, I've seen girls several years into the business more sloppy than rookie Jamilia. Even though she didn't get a lot of offense in, the moves look good (and I've seen worse punches as well). This was the first Craft-match I've seen, but I think she has some natural talent to build on. Working with a mask isn't easy though, I hope she got some pointers from El Generico and Delirious at the tapings  |

Got caught up on the ROH shows (past few weeks have been really enjoyable) and that match was perfectly fine. Sure it was basic, but it was fundamentally sound and Jamilia Craft didn't mess anything up which is obviously a plus. Jamilia has, ahem, crafted a pretty unique look for herself with her attire and the mysterious & alluring mask that helps her stand out. Hopefully she contiunes to improve and gets future TV outings.
Daizee Haze was just as rock solid as usual. I'm a sucker for any move that has "Tiger" in it (Suplex, Bomb, Driver) so I loved the finish, and it was an absolutely lovely bridge.
