Chapter 16


The day of the meeting with Tony Khan arrived faster than Y/N anticipated. He woke up feeling a mix of excitement and nerves, knowing that whatever Tony had planned for him would be pivotal in his wrestling career. As he lay in bed, he mentally prepared himself for the conversation, replaying different scenarios in his mind. This meeting could shape the next chapter of his journey, and he wanted to be ready for anything.

Anna, as always, was by his side, sensing his anticipation. When he walked into the kitchen, she was already there, her face lighting up with a supportive smile. "Big day today," she said, placing a cup of coffee in front of him. "How are you feeling?"

Y/N took a sip of the coffee, letting the warmth soothe his nerves. "Excited, but a little nervous too. Tony doesn’t call for meetings like this unless something big is on the horizon."

Anna nodded, her expression thoughtful. "You’ve earned this, Y/N. Whatever Tony has planned, I know you’re going to knock it out of the park. Just be yourself and trust your instincts."

Y/N smiled, appreciating her unwavering confidence in him. "Thanks, Anna. I don’t know what I’d do without you. You always know exactly what to say."

She reached across the table and squeezed his hand. "That’s because I know you better than anyone. You’re going to do great, just like you always do."

They finished breakfast together, the conversation light and easy, but Y/N could feel the underlying excitement building. He dressed in casual yet professional attire, wanting to make a good impression without being too formal. Before heading out, Anna gave him a quick kiss on the cheek. "Good luck. I can’t wait to hear all about it when you get back."

The drive to the AEW offices felt longer than usual, the anticipation making every mile stretch out. When Y/N finally arrived, he took a deep breath before stepping out of the car. The building was bustling with activity, a reminder of the many moving parts that made AEW such a successful promotion.

As he walked through the familiar halls, Y/N couldn’t help but feel a surge of pride. He had worked hard to get here, and now, he was on the verge of something even bigger. The receptionist greeted him with a warm smile and directed him to Tony Khan’s office.

When Y/N entered the office, Tony was already there, standing by his desk with a welcoming grin. "Y/N, great to see you. Come on in, have a seat."

Y/N shook Tony’s hand and sat down, trying to gauge the mood of the meeting. Tony was known for being enthusiastic and passionate about wrestling, and today was no exception. There was an energy in the room that Y/N could feel immediately.

"First off," Tony began, leaning forward slightly, "I just want to say how incredible your match with Sammy was. You both brought the house down, and the fans are still talking about it. You’ve really stepped up lately, and it hasn’t gone unnoticed."

Y/N felt a surge of pride at the praise but kept his expression focused. "Thank you, Tony. It was one of those matches where everything just clicked. Sammy’s a great opponent, and I knew we could create something special."

Tony nodded, his enthusiasm evident. "And that’s exactly what you did. But I didn’t call you here just to congratulate you. I’ve been thinking about your future in AEW, and I believe it’s time we elevate you to the next level."

Y/N’s heart pounded in his chest, but he kept his composure. "I’m all ears. What do you have in mind?"

Tony smiled, clearly excited to share his plans. "We’ve got a major pay-per-view coming up, and I want you to be a key player. You’ve shown you can handle the big moments, and I think it’s time we start positioning you as one of the top guys in the company. I’m talking about a high-profile storyline that could lead to a title shot down the line."

Y/N felt a rush of adrenaline at Tony’s words. This was the kind of opportunity he had been working toward. "I’m ready for that, Tony. Whatever you need, I’m all in."

Tony leaned back, pleased with Y/N’s response. "I knew you would be. We’ve got a few ideas on the table, but I want to hear your thoughts as well. This is going to be a collaborative effort, and I want you to feel invested in the direction we take."

They spent the next hour brainstorming, throwing around ideas for potential storylines and feuds. Tony was open to Y/N’s input, and together they began to craft a storyline that would not only showcase Y/N’s skills but also build towards something meaningful—a journey that fans could get behind.

As the meeting went on, Y/N could see the bigger picture coming into focus. This wasn’t just about one match or one storyline; it was about positioning him as a major player in AEW. The storyline they developed had layers, with twists and turns that would keep the audience engaged and invested in Y/N’s journey.

By the time they wrapped up, Y/N felt a renewed sense of purpose. Tony stood up and extended his hand. "I’m excited about where we’re headed, Y/N. I know you’re going to knock it out of the park."

Y/N shook his hand firmly, feeling the weight of the opportunity but also the thrill of what was to come. "Thanks, Tony. I won’t let you down."

As he left the office, Y/N couldn’t help but smile. The future was bright, and he was ready to embrace it. On the drive home, he replayed the meeting in his mind, already thinking about how to bring their ideas to life in the ring.

When he walked through the door at home, Anna was waiting for him, her eyes filled with curiosity and excitement. "So, how did it go?"

Y/N grinned, pulling her into a hug. "It went better than I could have hoped. Tony’s got big plans for me, and I’m going to be a key player in the next big storyline."

Anna beamed, her excitement matching his. "I knew it! I’m so proud of you, Y/N. This is exactly what you deserve."

They spent the evening talking about the meeting, with Y/N filling Anna in on all the details. They discussed the potential storylines, the challenges, and the opportunities that lay ahead. Anna, as always, offered her insights, helping Y/N think through different angles and possibilities.

As the night wore on, Y/N felt a deep sense of gratitude. He had come so far, and now, with Anna by his side and Tony’s backing, he was ready to take his career to the next level. The road ahead would be challenging, but Y/N knew that he had everything he needed to succeed.

And as he drifted off to sleep that night, his mind buzzed with possibilities. Tomorrow would be the start of a new chapter, one that could define his legacy in AEW. And he was more than ready for the challenge.
