Britt Baker has recently garnered significant attention due to her altercation with MJF and his girlfriend, AEW on-screen talent Alicia Atout. The organization’s disciplinary committee has suspended Baker for one to two weeks and fined her for her conduct during the July 17th episode of Dynamite.
It is reported that Baker referred to Atout as a ‘Stupid f***ing b***’ after Atout informed MJF that Baker was disparaging him and making derogatory remarks about both MJF and Will Ospreay.
In a recent interview with Stephanie Chase, AEW wrestler Deonna Purrazzo reacted to the backstage controversy. She said,
“Very similar (describing the TNA locker room as like AEW in the way of being a family). I think this was just one instance that sparked a lot of drama and also kind of took on a life of its own. The rumor mill starts going, and things aren’t as they were. People add their two cents and it makes it way bigger than it was. I think this was an isolated incident because everything else that I’ve experienced in this locker room is supportive, encouraging, is a lot of camaraderie. We just recently celebrated people’s birthdays and had birthday cakes and sang. I feel this locker room doesn’t get as much credit as it deserves for that type of camaraderie. I don’t know what it was like before. I can only speak to my experiences, but I feel like it doesn’t get enough credit as it deserves.”
