Big update on Britt Baker's status amid her AEW absence [Reports]
Britt Baker has been absent from AEW programming since November last year. The fans are concerned that she might have had a falling out with All Elite President Tony Khan.
The former AEW Women's World Champion last performed in the Jacksonville-based company on the November 13, 2024, edition of Dynamite, where she defeated Penelope Ford in a singles match at Total Mortgage Arena in Bridgeport, Connecticut.
Last year, Baker had a backstage altercation with MJF and his girlfriend, Alicia Atout. She was suspended for some time after the incident. Since then, the fans have been worried about The D.M.D's status with AEW. Some believe that she and Tony Khan might have had some differences, resulting in her prolonged absence from All Elite TV.
Popular wrestling journalist Sean Ross Sapp recently provided a major update on Baker's absence from AEW. Speaking on the Fightful Select podcast, he stated that despite all the speculation, The Doctor is still with AEW and is expected to stay for a long while.
