In a new interview with AEW's Unrestricted podcast, Blue talked about finally getting her graphic and told a heartwarming story about how she shared the news with her mother.

“I cried a lot [laughs]. I remember my first extra work was still during the pandemic days in Jacksonville, I remember being terrified. I remember being an extra in that crowd shaking and that was actually [my friend’s] first day of extra work, which was really freaking awesome. But I remember sitting there and being like ‘Crap, that’s gonna be us. We’re gonna have to go get in that ring.’ I remember they told me my first match was against Britt [Baker] and I was like ‘Oh, it’s just Britt Baker’ and then [there is] Dustin Rhodes. I wasn’t back until the All Out that I got signed at. To see it go from I was literally cheering in the crowd until like 2 a.m. or whatever it was, to getting the graphic. I facetimed my mom, cause CD had told me that they wanted to put out the graphic today. I just texted her and was like ‘Be prepared for something’ and she’s like spamming my phone while I was in the makeup chair, so i facetimed her and I just sent her the picture of the graphic. She was crying, it made me cry, I was sitting in the makeup chair trying not to cry. I never thought I was going to make it to that point, I’ve wanted to be this for so long and AEW has been the dream company [for a long time.]”

Blue has also began to appear for Ring Of Honor in recent weeks, wrestling the likes of Athena and Diamante.
