All Elite Wrestling’s Dr. Britt Baker D.M.D. has opened up about her personal influences that inspired her to chase her pro wrestling dreams.
Speaking with Wrestlezone, Baker highlighted the recent women’s revolution in WWE as being a significant turning point for her.
“Instead of diving further back to the fandom as a child, more recently when I was training as an independent wrestler, that is really when women’s wrestling took to the forefront and really started this upward rise,” Baker stated.
She continued, “The women’s revolution—evolution—that, for me, major influencing on that was the Four Horsewomen of WWE: Bayley, Becky, Charlotte, and Sasha. And I think all women today, we have them to thank to some extent because, whether you like it or not, they had a huge role in women’s wrestling being where it is today. They fought through the two-minute matches and the 20-second segments. So, for them to kind of stick through it and keep grinding, that really benefits the rest of us.”
Looking to the future, Baker admits that she wants to help AEW continue to innovate and entertain fans. She explained that they are committed to providing an alternative, highlighting that competition is excellent for everyone.
