“I understand. After retiring, I felt antsy myself. I knew I didn’t want to wrestle anymore, but I still wanted to help out the company in some way. I can relate completely. When you work in a company like this, it’s hard to get adjusted to a regular life,” Beth laughed a bit, forming a small smile. “I’m well. I tried to say hi to you then, but I knew you were busy preparing for your match.”
“See that’s the thing,” Brie responds with wide eyes, wondering if she could say the truth here before shrugging and continuing, “I didn’t want to retire completely. I was pressured into it, technically, unfortunately. So I think that’s why I’m feeling antsy.” She adds, grabbing a weight and adjusting what needed to be adjusted. “There was always after the match, you know.” She grins.
Beth had been helping the new recruits at the Performance Center for some time. While she was retired, she still wanted to be involved with the company and ensure that the next generation of wrestlers would be ready. And what better way than to learn from an older wrestler, who knew a thing or two about how the company worked? She had just finished up with giving some drills to the students, looking over her shoulder to see a familiar face. Beth gave a small smile, “Hey. It’s nice to see you again. It’s been a while. How have you been?”
“I’ve been antsy. It’s why I’m here, truthfully. I didn’t think I’d miss being on the road and wrestling so much but I do, and it – well, antsy happened and I’m here to work it off.” Brie replies in a rush, biting her lip to stop herself from continuing her word vomit. “How about you? I never got a chance to say hello to you during Wrestlemania Weekend.”
She had gone down to the Performance Center to work on some of her moves, on the off chance that she did come back to wrestle, when she spotted the other woman across from her. Without a second thought, Brie had walked toward the woman, and sat next to her, smiling slightly. “Hi.” She says, hoping she won’t get turned away from some conversation.
