After staying out of action for more than ten months, Britt Baker finally returned to weekly TV on the latest episode of AEW Dynamite. This came after she made a brief appearance at the 2024 Forbidden Door PPV, last weekend and teased a feud with Mercedes Mone, an angle that continued on AEW’s flagship show.
In a promo session on AEW Dynamite, Britt Baker stated that for the last 10 months, she was in a banged-up state and mentally running on empty while dealing with a herniated disc and torn hip labrum but those weren’t enough to keep her down. Then one day, she got really sick and began having blurry vision with her right arm being numb which was described to be TIA (Transient Ischemic Attack), also known as a mini-stroke.

Mone said there’s a line on AEW Dynamite of several women gunning for the titles and she just needs to get back in the line. The segment ended with Mone holding up the two title belts before leaving the ring.
