Britt Baker AEW return rumors and Thunder Rosa challenge have taken center stage in the wrestling community, as speculation intensifies about Baker’s comeback and her possible involvement in a high-stakes match. The conversation gained momentum after Thunder Rosa threw down a unique ‘Hair vs Hair’ challenge, stirring up memories of their past rivalry and fueling debates across social platforms.
Britt Baker’s Hiatus and Backstage Turmoil
Britt Baker, once a core figure in AEW’s women’s division thanks to her memorable feuds and ability to build younger talent, encountered significant setbacks over the past year. Reports of backstage conflict emerged after an alleged argument involving Baker, MJF, and his girlfriend. Baker’s reported suspension followed these events, marking a turning point in her AEW tenure.
Her last televised match occurred in November 2024 against Penelope Ford, where she also had a heated face-off with Serena Deeb. During this standoff, Baker reportedly made disparaging remarks towards Deeb, downplaying her relevance in the division. Since then, Baker has remained absent from AEW programming, causing fans to speculate on X/Twitter about her future.
Reactions and Speculation Around Baker’s Future
The absence of the former AEW Women’s World Champion has given rise to a flurry of opinions and rumors among wrestling enthusiasts. While some online users believe Baker may never return, others allege that Tony Khan’s interest in Baker was mainly to secure Adam Cole, her former boyfriend, further muddying perceptions around her AEW status.
Thunder Rosa Throws Down a ‘Hair vs Hair’ Gauntlet
Thunder Rosa, also an ex-AEW Women’s World Champion, seeks to rekindle her contentious rivalry with Baker. On her vlog, the wrestler expressed a keen desire to face Baker once more, specifically proposing a dramatic ‘Hair vs Hair’ match at the All In event scheduled for Texas. She invoked both the business potential and the emotional weight of their shared history as motivations for her challenge.
“I throw a challenge. Just a little challenge. Hair versus hair, you know, um, against my, uh, my nemesis Britt Baker for All In. And the reason why I’m doing it is, one, well, because I know there’s money on the table. But two, she’s bonded by blood with me. She cannot get rid of my name no matter what happens—ever. And that gives me a lot of pleasure, too,”
she said. —Thunder Rosa, AEW Wrestler
Anticipation Builds for a Potential Return
With Thunder Rosa’s bold challenge echoing across social media, attention now shifts to whether Britt Baker will accept the invitation and re-enter the AEW spotlight. As fans debate her reinstatement and possible match, the outcome could have significant implications for AEW’s women’s division and ongoing storylines. The wrestling world is set for another dramatic chapter if Baker decides to step back into the ring and confront her old rival in Texas.
