Britt Baker finally returns to AEW, and there is now a new TBS champion
Cageside Seats
Britt Baker has been missing from AEW since November 2024, for reasons that aren’t clear. With the special “Rebel Heart” episode of Dynamite coming up in September, a lot of fans have been wondering if Tony Khan would at least bring her back for that show. I think we all know the answer now, because DMD finally returned to AEW during today’s (Aug. 30) Buy In pre-show for All In 2026 at Wembley Stadium. It all went down when a mystery masked person showed up at the finish of Maya World’s TBS championship defense against CMLL World Women’s Champion Persephone. The mystery person attacked the champ, which helped Persephone win the title and become a double champ. The AEW commentators assumed the mystery person was Maya’s rival Hikaru Shida, but once this person applied the Lockjaw submission hold on Maya, it became apparent that Britt Baker was back. .@REALBRITTBAKER IS BACK!
