Hold onto your popcorn, wrestling fans! The head honcho of AEW, Tony Khan, has just dropped a bombshell that’s more exciting than a triple-threat match on a Friday night. In a recent chat with reporters, Khan gave a tantalizing update on Britt Baker’s injury status, and it’s got everyone buzzing louder than a broken turnbuckle.
Khan, who seems as eager as a kid in a candy store, couldn’t contain his excitement about Baker’s imminent comeback. “Really excited about Britt Baker being close to ready for a return to AEW,” he announced with the kind of enthusiasm that makes you wonder if he’s been hitting the energy drinks a bit too hard. “She’s been out with an injury and was not clear to wrestle. I do expect that sometime soon she could return. So, I would absolutely love that.”
For those who’ve been living under a rock, or maybe just stuck in a headlock, Britt Baker has been MIA since last September. Rumor has it, she’s been sidelined due to a pesky back injury. But fear not, her absence hasn’t dampened Khan’s spirits or his plans for world domination through wrestling entertainment.
Khan continued to wax lyrical about the return of his prized wrestler, making it sound like a homecoming parade. “It’s going to feel amazing when we’ve got great stars — Britt Baker is a great example — it will be great to have the Doctor back in AEW,” he gushed. “Certainly, for me, I know that Dr. Britt Baker and fans all over the world will be excited to see her return. I’m glad that she’s going to be cleared to return very soon.”
But wait, there’s more! Khan didn’t stop at just Baker. He’s also hoping to see other top AEW stars like Jamie Hayter, Adam Cole, and Kenny Omega back in the ring, making it sound like the Avengers of AEW are gearing up for a grand reunion.
Baker’s last in-ring escapade was on the September 16 edition of “AEW Collision,” where she squared off against then AEW TBS Champion, Kris Statlander. Since then, fans have been counting down the days until their favorite wrestling dentist steps back into the spotlight.
So, get ready, folks! The Doctor is almost back in the house, and it’s going to be a comeback for the ages.
