10 Ups & 1 Down From AEW Dynamite: Blood & Guts (May 5)

9. Diagnosis: Squash

Britt Baker
AEW

It would have been great to see more from Britt Baker and Hikaru Shida last night, particularly with their Double Or Nothing match finally announced, though it looks like we'll have to wait for that feud to start ramping up.

Regardless, we got a sweet squash for the good doctor instead. From the moment she walked down the tunnel, Baker's demeanour showed she didn't give a single hoot about opponent Julia Hart, whom she bantered off relentlessly in the ring. Open mockery followed, with Baker treating Hart like dirt, pulling out of an Air Raid Crash pin at one, then rolling the enhancement talent into Lockjaw for the win.

All while grinning like the Cheshire Cat.

Britt remains one of the best and most complete acts in the company. Her division is ready for her to lead it now.
