Tony Khan Provides Update on Britt Baker's Return to AEW

Earlier today, AEW President Tony Khan held a media call to promote this Sunday’s Forbidden Door PPV in Long Island. During the conversation, Khan was asked about the status of former women’s champion Britt Baker, who has been out of action since September 2023. Here's what Khan had to say:

"I’m really excited about Britt Baker being close to ready for a return to AEW. She’s been out with an injury and was not cleared to wrestle. I do expect that sometime soon she could return. I would absolutely love that. I’m very excited about getting all of our top stars back. It’s been great having MJF back. So many top stars had been away. It’s going to feel amazing when we have great stars, Britt Baker is a great example, it will be great to have the Doctor back in AEW. So many other great former champions, including Jamie Hayter, Kenny Omega, Adam Cole, and many other great wrestlers we can’t wait to have back here in AEW. For me, I know that Dr. Britt Baker and fans all over the world will be excited to see her return. I’m glad she’s going to be cleared to return very soon."

Baker is an AEW original and has been with the promotion since it launched back in 2019. Are you excited for The DMD to return? Share your thoughts in the comments below.
