Tony Khan Shares Thoughts on Britt Baker’s Role
AEW President Tony Khan addressed Britt Baker’s current status during an interview on the Battleground podcast. Khan expressed strong support for Baker, highlighting his admiration and the growing opportunities in AEW’s women’s division.
He said, “I really like Britt a lot, and I think there are so many exciting things happening in the women’s division. Britt is somebody I really like and respect a lot, and I definitely think as we’ve evolved—with more tag teams and singles wrestling opportunities now across multiple shows, now that we have four hours of TV with Dynamite and Collision—I think there are going to be more and more opportunities.
You’re seeing I’m signing a lot more young wrestlers, and Britt is still somebody very highly regarded and respected here in AEW. So, I would expect to see Britt back in AEW. I just don’t want to say when.” – Tony Khan, AEW President
