Dr. Britt Baker hasn’t wrestled for AEW since November 2024, and while it was initially thought she was working on outside projects, it soon became apparent that she had been purposely removed from television. Still, with AEW returning to Pittsburgh last month, some fans thought this would be when she was reintroduced, with a hometown pop guaranteed. However, this didn’t occur, and now, as her absence continues, she has taken to X to thank the “true fans who show love every day.“
During the early days of AEW, it seemed that Baker was being positioned as the face of their women’s division, with a feud against Thunder Rosa truly putting her on the map. Yet in recent years, she has been surpassed in status by Toni Storm and Mercedes Moné, making her less important to the promotion. Therefore, many believe that when her contract expires in 2026, she will quietly depart AEW, which will open the door for her to join WWE.
