Britt Baker explains why she didn’t appear on the October 8th 2024 edition of AEW Dynamite

Just prior to the October 8th 2024 edition of AEW Dynamite, it was announced that Britt Baker would miss the show due to an unspecified illness. Britt had been scheduled to face Willow Nightingale in a number one contenders match for the AEW Women’s Championship.

In a video posted to Twitter/X, Britt explained why she didn’t appear on Dynamite…

“Hey, guys. It’s Dr. Britt Baker D-M-D. I just wanted to check in and thank everybody so much for all your get well messages. I don’t need to worry because I’m okay. I still have a strep throw, but I sound way worse than I actually feel. I feel so much better now. Two days ago, I was dying, but now we’re good. I went to urgent care, got tested for strep, took antibiotics, got an IV shot. I’m good. I’m good. I’m on the mend.

For future reference, if you are in an area that could be affected by a hurricane, stock the fuck up. I messed up. I didn’t think I was going to be here. I was supposed to be at Dynamite in Washington, so I was like, I’m fine. No, change of plans. I was stuck in Orlando. And there was no supplies by the time I realized that there was no gas, no water, nothing. All the essentials gone off all the shelves. So stock up in advance. Don’t be a dumb ass like me. And thank you, again, everybody who checked in and all the weirdos with your f*cking conspiracy theories, f*ck off.”
