The future of Dr. Britt Baker, D.M.D., in All Elite Wrestling is facing significant uncertainty after the former AEW Women’s World Champion removed all mentions of AEW from her social media handles. This move, combined with her notable absence from the October 2, 2024, episode of AEW Dynamite in her hometown of Pittsburgh, has fueled rampant speculation that her time with the company may be coming to an end. The situation is a significant topic of discussion, as Baker was one of the foundational stars of the AEW women’s division and a “pillar” of the company since its inception. Her last television appearance was on the November 13, 2024, episode of Dynamite, where she had a brief confrontation with Serena Deeb.
According to a report from Dave Meltzer in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Baker’s absence from the Pittsburgh show was a strong indication that she would likely not be used in AEW again. The report also noted that there has been speculation that the former champion could be heading to WWE, although Meltzer speculated that she might run into stylistic or creative issues in that environment. While Baker is a real-life dentist with a successful career outside of the ring, her next move in the wrestling world is now a major question. As of now, neither Baker nor AEW officials have made a public statement regarding her contract status or her future with the promotion.
