see to me mike feels more like one of those cases where toby clearly didn't think of anything past "that guy spamton and tenna talk to", then when CH2 got dropped on its own and everyone got hooked onto mike he decided to give mike SOME sort of presence past 'the backstage guy', hence why he also got the switch 2 gimmick fight
meanwhile, the knight? the MAIN VILLAIN of our tale so far? no way toby didn't already have a clue as to who he wanted the knight to be at the start, whether it's dess, the unknown mother that would eventually become carol, or rudy, that shit was on toby's chalkboard from day one
