Sloane Jacobs

She's slowly gaining in-ring momentum by the looks of recent performances. Understandably wrestles a very rookie style (which is fine at this juncture) mixed in a few flashier moves. She is pretty generic in terms of character and promo work but y'know, she is 20. She has a lot of time to work on that, and I'm confident that she will improve in the coming years.
