It was a pretty big relief for Fiona now that her part in all of this was done. The cameras and the spotlights were on Kendra as she made her way to the ring, allowing Fiona to lower the microphone and relax again. The crowd's reception was great, better than she'd hoped for, evidence that she really was resonating with them these first two weeks of NMW. Now all that was needed was a good showing from Kendra tonight, and they'd both be in business moving forward.

She smiled as Kendra lifted her arm by the wrist and raised it high, the duo standing side by side in the ring for the first time in the better part of a year. She hugged her afterwards, keeping the mic down as she spoke into her ear.

"Your time to shine now. Show them all what you've got."

Breaking the hug, she stayed at Kendra's side as her partner's music faded out. Now it was time for Kendra's opponent to show up, and try to ruin the moment. Fiona had no plans to interfere in the match any more than simply offering verbal support, as she was confident Kendra could handle it and would want to win her debut match on her own.
