Huge Update On Britt Baker’s AEW Status Amid Continued Absence

Britt Baker AEW

Britt Baker has been missing from AEW for a long time, and now there’s been a new update on her status with the company.

As her absence from the company continues, it was recently highlighted that Britt Baker had removed all references to AEW on her social media accounts. However, as reported previously, she remains under contract with the company.

According to that report, Baker will be All Elite until the fall of 2026; however, with injury time added, she could stay with the promotion into 2027.

The former AEW Women’s Champion has now been missing from television for 11 months, and no official explanation for that absence has been given. This has only added to speculation that Baker could be heading to WWE when her contractual situation allows.

Tony Khan recently commented on Baker, indicating that her time in AEW might not be over after all:

Dr. Britt Baker, D.M.D., and what a great star in AEW Dr. Britt Baker has been and she is still a fantastic, fantastic wrestling star, and she’s been away from AEW for a while, but still very much with us and at some point, hopefully soon, I’d love to see Dr. Britt Baker come back.

However, that doesn’t mean Baker is in line for a return any time soon.

Britt Baker Has Not Been Mentioned For AEW Return

Speaking on the Fightful Report, Sean Ross Sapp put to bed any suggestion that Baker could be in line for an imminent return to AEW:

Regarding Britt Baker being brought back — ‘when the time is right.’ I have not heard any cases of her being mentioned or planned of late.

At the start of 2025, it was believed that Tony Khan had become fed up with the “wildly unpopular” Baker, leading to her extended absence from the company.
