Thanks,

Is there a good implementation example of this?

    You can use GSSAPI with Kerberos and TLS channel binding.  RFC5077 defines stateless server session resumption, by moving the server state to the client encrypted in the server's key.  The server key should be short-term, and should not be known to any third party (such as A).
    
    The structure of a server session depends on internal implementation details of the server SSL library, and cannot portably be constructed by some other entity.
    
    TLS 1.3 unifies session tickets with (external) PSKs, perhaps you should recast your approach in terms of PSKs rather than session tickets.
