Dave Meltzer was the first to report that Britt Baker was suspended and fined by AEW for a week or two due to an incident involving MJF and Alicia Atout.
Fightful Select reports Baker made some comments about MJF in the women’s locker room at the July 17th Dynamite show, which led to a confrontation between them. Atout, MJF’s girlfriend, also confronted Baker.
After an investigation by HR, her punishment was given. Despite being close friends in the past, Baker and MJF had a falling out over the last year.
WrestlePurists reported that the incident occurred after MJF’s match with Ospreay, where MJF punched a wall in frustration.
