Wrestling aficionados, hold onto your spandex! The drama is boiling over as Britt Baker made her grand return to AEW from suspension—though in a very modern twist, via satellite video. The Good Doctor had some choice words for Mercedes Mone ahead of their epic TBS Championship clash at All In at Wembley Stadium.
Previously sidelined for a backstage skirmish with the American Champion MJF, Baker’s suspension was always a temporary setback, never a KO. During this week’s “AEW Dynamite,” after Kamille steamrolled her opponents in a squash match, Mone grabbed the mic and let the verbal jabs fly, thanking the EVPs for sidelining Baker.
But hold the phone! In comes Tony Schiavone with breaking news: AEW President Tony Khan swooped in, flexed his muscles, and rescinded Baker’s suspension. Cue the jumbotron! Baker appeared larger-than-life with a blistering message for Mone.
“We all know the second things don’t go your way, you take your ball and you go home,” Baker declared, throwing shade at Mone’s WWE exit as Sasha Banks. “You’re not the future. Let’s get real, AEW is just the flavor of the month for you, where for me, AEW is home.”
Will Baker’s fiery words be enough to shake Mone, or will the Boss stand tall at Wembley? As of now, Baker’s physical return to “Dynamite” remains unconfirmed, but the countdown to their championship clash on August 25 is officially on. Get your popcorn ready, folks—this one’s going to be a blockbuster!
