AEW’s Britt Baker, once a cornerstone of the company’s women’s division, is currently off television, fueling speculation about her future with the promotion. According to reports from Wade Keller of PWTorch and the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Baker’s status with AEW remains unclear as she has not been featured in any recent programming.
While Dave Meltzer confirmed that Baker is still under contract with AEW and not done with the company, the belief is that her absence from TV is tied to AEW CEO Tony Khan’s decision not to use her. This has left fans speculating about whether Baker might eventually leave AEW and join WWE, although sources suggest such a move is unlikely in the immediate future.
Why Britt Baker Isn’t Being Used
- Reported Creative Frustrations:
Reports suggest that Baker is part of a group of AEW stars whom Khan has chosen not to feature on television for reasons that remain undisclosed. While AEW’s women’s division has seen notable pushes for stars like Toni Storm, Saraya, and Hikaru Shida, Baker’s absence has raised questions about her place in the company. - Contract Status:
Baker’s contract reportedly still has several years left, making her departure unlikely without AEW granting her release. Meltzer noted that any decisions regarding Baker’s return to TV are entirely at Tony Khan’s discretion. - Not Expected Back Soon:
Per WrestleVotes Radio on SportsKeeda’s Backstage Pass, WWE insiders do not expect Baker to be available for signing anytime soon. This suggests that her contract with AEW is binding and that her return—or lack thereof—will depend on when Khan decides to bring her back for a storyline.
