The name Britt Baker resurfaces in the backstage areas of AEW.
Indeed, Fightful confirms that Britt Baker’s name is once again a topic of backstage discussions ahead of the Dynamite Rebel Heart special. A show that will pay tribute to Rebel and raise funds to fight amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).
The event is set for September 9, 2026, and further details will need to be watched closely since nothing has been finalized yet. Baker’s return for this show would not be surprising, considering she and Rebel have spent a lot of time together on AEW programming.
The two formed a duo in AEW’s early years, with Rebel acting as Britt Baker’s manager. So it is only natural to see Baker’s name reappear for this show, which will undoubtedly be Rebel’s final appearance given that ALS is a degenerative disease.
A Recent Return
Britt Baker’s last appearance in AEW dates back to November 2024, when she confronted Serena Deeb.
Rumors then circulated about an ego clash behind the scenes, and she has had no appearances or matches since. Nevertheless, she remains under contract with the company. Baker has maintained total silence on the matter, while Tony Khan has expressed optimism regarding her return.
Recently, Britt Baker has resumed a more active presence on social media to support her friend Rebel. It remains to be seen whether this return will extend to the ring.
