Alicia Atout signed a new contract with MLW and spoke about her previous deal ending at the end of 2022. Atout said that she pitched working as a performer eight months before the angle started in MLW. She originally worked as an interviewer. Atout told Court Bauer about it, who said they would “circle back” and eventually it happened. While she still worked as an interviewer, she knew that she could also be an on-screen talent. Atout said that wrestlers like EJ Nduka, Alex Kane, Emilio Sparks, and others talked to her backstage after the angle, which surprised most of the locker room.
