AEW All Out 2021: 10 Things That Must Happen

10. Britt Baker Rampages On

Britt Baker is riding the crest of a wave.

She's become AEW's very own version of Becky Lynch circa 2019, and she's done it by carrying herself like a top star who doesn't take anyone's sh*t. That, rather unfortunately, means that Britt has raced out in front of literally everybody else in the women's division right now.

Sorry, Kris Statlander, but you don't have a hope in hell of taking that title unless AEW decide to knee-jerk a turn from Rebel or Jamie Hayter suddenly. That's unlikely, so Baker retaining her gold is the only outcome that makes sense here - the match won't be bad though, at least.

Britt is defo waiting on something bigger though. It's a pity that All Out won't be a proving ground for her as champion. Statlander feels like one of those stopgap challengers rather than something mega, and that's why this is down as a routine win for the champ.
