In between telling Bleacher Report that she was "terrified" about telling her parents she wanted to wrestle, AEW's Britt Baker had a funny story to recant. In case anyone doesn't know, the whole dentist thing is a shoot. She's qualified, and she's endlessly proud of that whenever ring announcers say, "Dr. Britt Baker D.M.D".

That might not be happening if she wasn't such a genius at hiding her WWE catch-up sessions.

Baker's Tuesday morning ritual included sitting at the back of a dental implant class watching the previous night's episode of Monday Night Raw. She never got caught doing this, which is probably why she continued to do it; she says that wrestling "kept her sane" when she was striving to become a qualified surgeon.

So, next time you're in school and fancy catching up on all things wrestling, don't feel guilty. Britt Baker did it first, and look how things turned out for her. The moral of this story is that wrestling > everything else on the planet ever.
