Shantelle Taylor vs. Tiana Ringer

[6.0] "A solid opener to the first Shimmer show. I absolutely love the cartwheel waistlock spot they do in this one, I am amazed this hasn't been replicated more across wrestling. Some minor timing issues and hesitations, but nothing that overly stands out and takes you out of the match"

[5.0] "A fun opener with some nice chain wrestling, good back work by Tiana. They stumbled a little toward the finish but got there in the end."

[6.0] "This match did what it needed to do - set the tone for Shimmer as a new promotion at its first event. And they did that well. Yes, there are a few awkward hesitations and botches and these two are clearly not the best performers out there, but it is what Shimmer is about: proper women's wrestling."

[5.0] "I'm not familiar with a ton of the women on this show, but I know Shantelle Taylor as Taylor Wilde in Impact Wrestling. I know nothing of Tiana Ringer, so this will be my first introduction to the SHIMMER product. It was a startup, so I'm not going to hold the low attendance against it. There are actually a few matches I've seen from the product that were excellent. This one was just okay. Both ladies did impressive things, but you could Shantelle Taylor was meant for more than Impact, despite still being there to this day."
