10 Worst AEW Matches Ever (According To The Internet)

10. Dr. Britt Baker Vs. Taya Valkyrie - Dynamite, July 26 2023 (2.42)

The first of...more than one Britt Baker match on this list, it is nice and accurate to point out that Baker is a star, is really, really funny, and, when paired against a very good talent is capable of brilliance. Her work with Thunder Rosa is iconic, and her match with Kris Statlander at All Out 2021 was one of the better efforts on what many people rate as the single greatest wrestling pay-per-view of all-time.

She is great at her best, but it would be naive to say that she is Bret Hart. Not particularly adept at carrying opponents, her opponent Taya Valkyrie is more star than craftswoman, and so, when they met in the ring, disaster ensued.

Very early, Taya hoisted Baker up for Road to Valhalla. What happened next is a mystery, albeit one that isn't anywhere near interesting enough to solve, like "Who was behind GTV?" or "What are the House of Black banging on about?"

Was this meant to be countered into a victory roll? It wasn't: Baker just landed awkwardly on her face without Taya knowing.

So technically, the move was struck. Awkwardly, yes, but it was struck. It couldn’t be the finish, since they had around seven excruciating minutes to go, so Taya instead just looked pissed beyond belief and did some form of ground and pound.
