Britt Baker Responds To Suspension Rumors & More

Britt Baker wants to know what she did next.

Last week word got out that former AEW Women’s Champion Britt Baker had been suspended by All Elite Wrestling. The reports stated that this stemmed from an argument Baker had with MJF over comments she made in the locker room. A number of different rumors about the altercation, comments, and more came out including a new one yesterday rating that Baker called Alicia Atout a “stupid fucking bitch.”

Last night after the most recent rumor came out over what Baker may have said backstage to cause the argument with MJF, Baker sent out a tweet seemingly indirectly shooting down some of the rumors. Baker basically made it seem as if some if not all of what is being said is not true and she was amused with what people are saying happened.

Now with all of this that is now out there, Mike Johnson of PWInsider put out a new article trying to possibly debunk and confirm what he is being told is true and what is not.

*Yes, Baker was suspended following an incident where she got into an argument with MJF.

*The argument was sparked by comments Baker is said to have made that got back to MJF.  We are told the initial spark was likely an older issue that flared up again when Baker made the comments.  No one was willing to go into specifics on that and a number of people were dismayed the story even leaked, feeling it didn’t help anyone that it did.

*There are versions of the story that MJF rushed into the AEW Women’s locker room or that Will Ospreay entered the women’s locker room to speak with Baker.  We are told that is not accurate.

*PWInsider.com is told Ospreay knocked on the women’s locker room and asked to speak to Baker.  She then entered a common area.  Ospreay was never in the women’s locker room, based on multiple sources.

*The MJF-Baker argument did not happen in the women’s locker room either.  We are told that it was also in a common area backstage.

*There is a version of the story that claims MJF threw a punch at a wall while arguing with Baker, which would insinuate he did so as a means of intimidating her.  We are told that MJF indeed struck a wall but did so out of frustration after the argument was over and he was not with Baker at the time.

*As far as why Baker was suspended over MJF, it appears to be that it was felt she precipitated the situation and since MJF was responding to that – and in some versions of the story, defending his girlfriend Alicia Atout – Baker was deemed the responsible party.

Johnson would also go on to report that the expectation is that Britt Baker will be back at TV tomorrow night. He only indicated that she would be there but did not mention anything about whether she would or would not appear on Dynamite this week or not.
