Speaking with the Daily Star, Mariah May was asked to comment on what was unique about the AEW locker room compared to others she had been in.

"I loved them all. Stardom is my family, AEW is my family. In both of them, I’ve been a foreigner. I know we both speak English, but I’m technically a foreigner, and I feel like they’ve both looked after me so much. I don’t have family or friends and they’re so sweet. They’ve taken me in as their own. Japan is a real sisterhood, they’re a little bit younger so its kind of like school in a way. Whereas I feel AEW is a family, you have your mums and your dads, you’ve got people from so many walks of life and doing so many different things. It's huge, there’s so many different people there. You have brothers and sisters. A real family. It’s lovely there," May said.
