AEW’s conundrum with a major star has spread to the locker room.

Britt Baker has not been to any taping since November 13, 2024.

Amid her absence, various rumors have surfaced, including her being close to joining rival company WWE and discontent with her peers.

Previously, there were reports of Baker being involved in a confrontation backstage with MJF and his girlfriend, which resulted in her suspension.

The company’s president, Tony Khan, was said to be frustrated with her antics, too.

Dave Meltzer appeared on Wrestling Observer Radio to provide an update on the situation, sharing that talents in the locker room were divided in their opinions.

I know people in the company who think it’s just one of those things and she’ll be back. Other people think that she’s gone, wants to go. [H/T: Ringside News]

Meanwhile, Britt Baker has yet to shed light on her AEW status, and her silence has only fueled more rumors.

Mercedes Mone recently conducted a live stream on Instagram, wherein she answered a few fan queries.

One AEW fan expressed the desire to watch her face Baker one more time. Taking a sly dig at the former champion, she said that Britt knows where she can find her.

Well, if the DMD wants a back adjustment, she knows where to find me. In my locker room, but make sure you knock on the door first before entering or I’m gonna call security and the cops.
