Dr. Britt Baker, D.M.D. can create a GIF with a facial expression she thinks of on the spot when she's not even the featured talent in a segment.

On the Wednesday 6 Dynamite, Baker was captured in the crowd, nudged by the presence of the camera to react to her peers in the Women's division. She did the most marvellous thing with her face. She rolled her eyes so hard that they twitched, and sort bulged up into her brain. All of humanity is a festering abscess. Everybody can play a bitch. Baker in about three seconds conveyed her character with immaculate disdain and made you want to watch more of somebody so detestable.

In her genuine breakthrough match with Hikaru Shida on April 8, Baker, serendipitously bloodied, reacted organically to her deviated septum. She used the red mist to elevate a totally deranged and committed finishing sequence in which she had the instincts to, yes, flash her teeth and reveal the sociopath within the fake, nice, marketable exterior shell.

In the course of one match, Baker put across the core of her character and revealed how good she had become on a mechanical level.
