They are impressed with Ridge's ambition.

Kelly brings up last year's Great American Bash and her title match.  She is asked how she is doing things differently last year.  She says they would have given her a pep rally to motivate her but she is a different person.  They trust her to make her own decisions.  Kelly asks Thea about Ridge Holland and how he affects Chase U.  Thea says people just Ridge because he isn't perfect for one second.  She says Ridge empowers her.  She let him in and then Riley, Duke, and Andre let him in.
