Fans have been speculating for months about Britt Bakers AEW status, but now weve got a clearer pictureand its not what most people were hoping for.
Despite rumors of a WWE jump and her noticeable absence from AEW programming since November 2024, Baker is still officially signed to AEW. But dont expect her to pop up on Dynamite anytime soon. According to Fightfuls Sean Ross Sapp, there are currently no creative plans in motion to bring her back.
During his Fightful Report on November 23, 2025, Sapp shut down rumors about her return and provided the most direct update yet:
That quote puts to rest the idea that shes actively being worked into any ongoing storylines, even as AEWs womens division continues to shift and new talent gets attention.
This comes after speculation triggered by Baker removing AEW from her social media bios and skipping AEWs Pittsburgh eventa city thats been closely tied to her brand. But despite the social media changes and silence, AEW President Tony Khan made it clear last week that shes still part of the team.
Bakers last AEW match was in November 2024 when she defeated Penelope Ford on Dynamite. Since then, shes reportedly been cleared to wrestle but has not been booked. For now, Bakers return remains in limbonot because of injury or contract issues, but simply because creative hasnt made a move yet.
