"Fucking finally...." Mariah May and Toni Storms heads popped up at the words. "I've been looking for you everywhere Toni." A laugh escaped the older blondes lips.

"I've been here the entire time Love." A light huff escaped his lips as he tried to slow his breathing presumably from running around the arena. "So what's up Andy?"

"So I thought of something but I need to know something as well." Toni's eyes met his.

"Go on." Toni could see his eyes flick to Mariah before he turned slightly red.

"Fuck sorry I'm being rude." The older woman couldn't help but notice his attitude change as Mariah took a slight interest in him. "My names Andrew, everyone calls me Andy. Been working a lot on the stuff y'all are doing. Which brings me back to.... Toni do you have your old ring gear?"

"Which gear?" There was a slight smirk along Andrew's lips.

"All of it from here?" She laughed as she nodded.

"Of course. It's in a storage locker. You'd just need to tell me what you need and when. But also.... Why?" He chuckled as his smirk grew. His grey eyes met Mariah's hazel pair before he spoke.

"Got a plan that might involve putting her in some of your old stuff. Call it portraying your youth." Toni couldn't help her laugh.

"Thats bloody brilliant. Tell me more." He chuckled as he took a seat at the table with them. "Before you say anymore though should at least properly introduce yous.... Andy, Mariah, Mariah.... Andy's an absolute idiot until it comes to storyline and then he's brilliant. He's been the one working on everything with us since you came on. How have you not met her yet?"

"Too busy dealing with you." Toni's middle finger extended towards him as he laughed. "Nice to finally meet you though. Considering everything." Andrew said before flashing her a smile.

"Lovely to meet you as well." Mariah's smile matched his as she spoke. Toni couldn't help but notice the fact that it seemed as though they had taken an interest in one another. "So go on.... Tell us what you were thinking." His cheeks lightly flushed red and she instantly noticed.

"S-So...." He quietly cleared his throat when his voice cracked. "I.... Uh.... Fuck sorry.... I lost my train of thought...." Toni gave him a tap on the back of the head.

"Ring gear." She reminded him before he nodded.

"Yea so basically what we were thinking...." He looked over at Toni to try and keep himself from getting distracted. "And mind you it will be a bit before this all happens since I don't know how everything's going to fit on Mariah.... But basically take them through your quote unquote eras in AEW. Now I know you probably don't want to have any of your old stuff altered so unless it fits her perfect I think the plan is to recreate it."

"I truly don't care if you take them in. I've got so many copies of the gear that I won't mind one or two taken in. It'll look better. Plus I don't think much alterations will need to be done except maybe giving her a little room in the chest." He inadvertently looked at Mariah's chest earning the smack on the back of the head he got from Kris Statlander who had been passing and noticed.

"She has eyes." He turned bright red at Kris' words while the two blondes laughed.

"That was my fault. I led him into looking at her tits. Don't give him too much shit." Toni said.

"You know better Drew...." He nodded at Kris' words.

"I didn't mean it. We were talking about gear and.... You know what I'm not going to explain more than that because I don't want another smack. My necks already fucking with me today." He said as he looked over at Kris. They exchanged a glance before she nodded and walked back to where she was headed. "So going back on track.... Along with the gear I got your old song and entrance and we're pretty much thinking debut Mariah as you at a ppv. Make everyone think it's you because in the gear and everything shes bound to make a bunch of people do a double take. She comes out give it a few seconds before boom your music hits and you come out everyone's let in on it. You can fawn over her or whatever you want but yeah that's kinda the tentative plan. Wanted to really fuck with people and have her go out and do the match as you but I think TK wants to save that for later not the first switch up shall we say." The two blondes exchanged a glance.

"Thats fucking brilliant." He chuckled at Toni's words.

"Might be an idiot by my minds still there. Didn't get dropped that many times on my head." Mariah eyed him for a moment before Toni spoke up.

"He used to wrestle. Actually wrestled with Stat a lot. But then the idiot decides that he's going to let someone half his size and half the experience hit a wheelbarrow driver on him. Instead of letting him land they held him for too long and...." He turned showing Mariah the jagged scar that went from his shoulder to the base of his skull.

"Landed right on my neck and head, shattered my collarbone, split my head open and pretty much exploded few vertebrae. It'll be a miracle if I ever get in a ring again." Mariah's eyes met Andrew's. "I've got no issue with people doing the move that know how to do it.... I just did it with a stupid kid on the indies and should've known better. Hell I did but I didn't care. Just wanted to have fun.... Wish it hadn't happened but hey.... Win some, ya lose some and then ya wind up in a company like this putting together matches and segments like y'alls. Think I'd rather be doing that than getting dumped on my head anyway.... But enough about me I've got to get some shit ready for later. Toni text me if you've got any questions or whatever and I'll hit you up when I've got some time to really sit down and talk about all of this." Toni nodded a smile along her lips.

"Will do Andy." He shot them both a quick smile before retreating back to where he was needed. "Why are you looking at me like you want his number? I'm not giving it. You can ask him yourself." A groan came from Mariah. "Is it the eyes or the accent?"

"It's bloody everything." Their eyes met for a moment.

"You're so easy." Mariah pushed her as she laughed. "Hes a good guy though. A bit complicated and hard to peel back his layers but all in all is a good person." The younger woman couldn't help but bite her lower lip as she thought about it. Toni watched her before lightly laughing as Mariah spoke.

"Don't mind a bit of a challenge."
