AEW Prez Tony Khan has given an update on Britt Baker’s status.
The former AEW Women’s World Champion hasn’t wrestled since September 2023 when she lost to Kris Statlander in an AEW TBS Title bout.
“I’m really excited about Britt Baker being close to ready for a return to AEW. She’s been out with an injury and was not cleared to wrestle. I do expect that sometime soon she could return. I would absolutely love that. I’m very excited about getting all of our top stars back.”
Speaking at a SXSW Panel, Baker was asked about whether she had big plans for this year after being on hiatus.
“Yeah, I do. Just growing as a wrestler and performer and learning what works and what doesn’t work. With all the new talent coming in and new talent I get to work with, and new coaches and new people coming over from WWE, new brains and minds we get to pick. You’re really doing yourself a huge disservice if you’re not constantly asking everybody around you for help. The help in AEW is growing and growing. For me personally, I can’t wait to get back in the ring, have [a mic] in my hand and cut some promos. Stay tuned,” she said.
