During a recent interview with The Ringer’s Ian Douglas, AEW wrestler Dr. Britt Baker commented on her name already being in the history books of All Elite Wrestling, her match with Thunder Rosa, and more.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On her name being in the history books of AEW: “My name is etched all over the history books for AEW right now. For the good, the bad, and the ugly, no matter what happens in the future, you can’t change what’s in the history books. I want to hopefully be on the rocket ship that takes AEW into outer space. I definitely have a ton of responsibility. I want to grow this women’s division into the best women’s division in the world, and I think we’re well on our way.”
On her match with Thunder Rosa: “It was [AEW’s] first-ever female main event. It brought out such a different side of me. I felt the immense pressure of being in the first female main event. It came at a time when the women’s division was really under fire. Take it for what it is, but a lot of people wanted to see that match fail. They wanted to be able to point and say, ‘See? We told you: This division sucks.’ I’m so stubborn. I’m a Taurus. I was like, ‘Absolutely not. Over my dead body is this match going to fail.’ That really brought something out of me that I needed. I needed that pressure, and pressure makes diamonds.”
