Amidst speculations about her future in All Elite Wrestling (AEW), Britt Baker, the 33-year-old wrestling star, has been spotted training with WWE and WCW legend Diamond Dallas Page. This development has sparked excitement among fans, who are eagerly waiting for her return to the ring.
Baker, a former AEW Women’s World Champion, has been absent from TV since failing to win the TBS Title from Kris Statlander on the September 16, 2023, episode of Collision. The reason behind her absence was reportedly a back injury, which has kept her sidelined for some time. Although AEW president Tony Khan has expressed his desire to see her back on AEW programming soon, no exact details have been revealed about her return.
However, the latest development suggests that Baker may be on the verge of making her comeback. Diamond Dallas Page, a former WCW World Champion, recently shared a series of photographs with Baker on Instagram, revealing that they had been working out together. Page, known for his highly-popular DDP Yoga, stated in the caption that Baker would return to AEW healed and revitalized.
The news has sparked excitement among fans, particularly those who have been following Baker’s rivalry with Thunder Rosa. The two wrestlers have a storied history, with Rosa defeating Baker in a brutal Lights Out match in 2021 and winning the Women’s World Title from Baker in a steel cage match on Dynamite in 2022.
Speaking on the Busted Open podcast, Thunder Rosa shared an update on Baker’s status, stating that she had no knowledge of a possible timeframe for Baker’s return. Rosa, who recently failed to regain the All Elite Wrestling Women’s World Title at Dynasty 2024, losing to Timeless Toni Storm, seemed uncertain about Baker’s return.
While the exact date of Baker’s return remains unknown, her training with Diamond Dallas Page has fueled speculations about her imminent comeback. Fans are eagerly waiting to see Baker back in action, and her training with a wrestling legend like Page has only added to the excitement. Will Baker return to AEW with a bang? Only time will tell.
