Chie Koishikawa vs. Emi Sakura

[6.0] "[***] This was pretty fun. I didn't realise what happened at the end of the match. Both of them just lay on the mat and then everyone started playing rock, paper, scissors. Reading the comments here it was a time limit draw. I still don't understand the rock, paper, scissors thing though."

[7.0] "They managed to have plenty of fun with the fans & environment without compromising on the ferocity where it counted most. Can't go higher than a 7, though, as the bout had only just kicked into high gear when the bell rang ***1/2"

[9.0] "A draw against Emi Sakura is a big step forward for Chie and she showed great aggression here against her mentor."

[8.0] "MOTN and really elevated by Chie's intense performance. The TLD works well when it's used to show how much she's progressed."

[9.0] "2025 - I really really loved this. Great lock ups to start with and some great basic wrestling holds that continued with angreat struggle throughout the match. Some fun spots and really impressed by Chie's dropkick. ****1/2"
