Nicole Matthews

[9.0] "Nicole Matthews was something while 2025 version of her was a completely different thing She is awesome now"

[10.0] "She's an PNW indie icon for a reason . One of the best mat wrestlers going today and a true magician who can put on great matches with anyone. Her matches with Daniel Makabe are some of the best bouts i've ever seen and deserve all the praise in the world. Nicole is truly one of the best in the world"

[9.0] "Stalwart of the Pacific Northwest independent wrestling scene for the better part of the last two decades. Has had her hand in developing a ton of up & coming wrestlers in Greater Vancouver both as one of the head trainers at the Lion's Gate Dojo as well as being a consistently good wrestler on shows in the area for many, many years. Seems to have her visa issues settled and be working more consistently in the US/abroad for the last year or two - mostly with DEFY & DPW; which will hopefully continue to open more eyes to how talented she is as both a technical mat wrestler as well as a great heel & in ring performer/character."

[10.0] "A really excellent wrestler. She's so good at technical stuff, and her match history speaks for itself. Her matches with Makabe are a personal favorite. A wrestler who knows how to make the small stuff matter just as much as big moments. Just so talented!"

[10.0] "I think she's very underrated here, most likely because she's been flying low under the radar until recently. Glad to see she's back on the circuit and getting her name out there. Absolutely crazy she's not picked up by a company. She'd do well anywhere."

[10.0] "The Locker Room Leader, The "SHIMMERTaker", and in my opinion, as close to a complete wrestler on the female scene as there is. Nicole can be entertaining with her promos and one-liners, she can do comedy really well, she's been in compelling feuds, such as with Jessie McKay and Madison Eagles, and the various feuds she's had in ECCW and more recently NEW, and she's an excellent wrestler against any sort of competitor, and especially against Joshi. Matthews recently returned to US indie wrestling after nearly 5 years following a border ban, has appeared a few times for WWE, including the 2018 Mae Young Classic, and made her first AEW appearance in March 2023."

[8.0] "One of women's wrestling's true all-rounders. Ace of multiple promotions, a technical wrestler, brawler, part of a legendary tag team, good on the mic, master of intergender matches. Deserves a lot of credit for a solid decade of work."

[10.0] "If you look at her matches in her career, you can tell that Nicole Matthews has come a long way from the girl from the suburban part of Vancouver. Tremendous talent all around."
