I DON'T want to extract before the colon and sort but I want to sort the entire string just using partial matches

Sorting a string only using a partial part by the use of another predetermined string order

So I have theses 2 arrays below where array A is the desired order and I would like to have array B placed in the same order. I have tried FEX nat_sort, ismember, and other pattern sorting techniques that I have come up with on my own but to no avail I have figured out how to sort these the same. Where before the colon is the only thing that matches string A and the array strings will always have equivalent entries, and will NEVER have duplicate entries.
A = "FLOATING.NET.P2" "PDSTL" "POLY1.1" "POLY1.5" "CONT.1" "ANCH.4" "MET.3" "BEAMS.3" "GERING.1" "GERING.2" "CAVE.3";
B = ["ANCH.4:text here";"BEAMS.3:text here";"CAVE.3:text here";"CONT.1:text here";"FLOATING.NET.P2:text here";"GERING.1:text here";"GERING.2:text here";"MET.3:text here";"PDSTL:text here";"POLY1.1:text here";"POLY1.5:text here"];
