Britt Baker returns tonight on AEW Dynamite, but she hasn’t been on television in quite some time.
All Elite Wrestling‘s Britt Baker recently sat down with Scott Fishman of TV Insider. When asked to explain her absence from AEW programming since All In, Baker said she can’t explain it other than the fact she lost and it put her to the back of the line.
“I guess in a lot of ways I can’t other than I lost, so back of the line,” Britt Baker said. “I can’t think of how many times I’ve said that to girls in my promos when I was champion. Back of the line. It’s a harsh reality when you’re in that position.”
When asked what it means to her to return on the 5th anniversary of AEW Dynamite from her hometown of Pittsburgh, Baker called the entire situation surreal.
“It’s surreal. Five years, it’s crazy,” Britt Baker said. “I feel like just yesterday was our first Dynamite. I feel like it was just yesterday we had the presser to announce AEW in the Jaguars stadium. Thinking about all the milestones since then, just the roster now and what it looks like compared to then. It’s crazy. I’m thankful to be a part of it.
“I’m thankful that whatever happens, who goes where, when, and why, there is always this core group of people that will be such a special part of my life and pro wrestling journey. I think moments come and go, people are in your heart forever. That’s where I am in my life. With the highest of highs come the lowest of lows, but if you have people in your corner, you can keep a level head through all of it.
