“Britt Baker was suspended for either one or two weeks and fined by the company’s disciplinary committee.

Details have been kept pretty quiet. It came from something backstage at the 7/17 Dynamite where Baker allegedly said something about MJF and Alicia Atout, MJF’s girlfriend heard it and told him and he confronted Baker.

This led to an investigation with HR talking to people on 7/24 and I believe the disciplinary committee that did the investigation recommended that. I don’t know if Tony Khan was or wasn’t involved in this and everyone was attempting to keep this under wraps. This all stems from problems in the past that weren’t addressed and a committee was put together to settle these things quickly. Most of those we heard from were sympathetic to her in this situation.”

The full quote on the story for anyone who cares.

Edit: Sean Ross Sapp saying he has “a lot more” on the MJF & Britt argument.

Second Edit: The Fightful Report:

  • Britt Baker reportedly “exercised frustration” backstage in the women’s locker room about MJF which Alicia Atout overheard and told MJF.

  • As per the report from Fightful, there was a confrontation between Britt Baker and Alicia Atout, additionally there was one between MJF and Baker.

  • Will Ospreay reportedly became involved and spoke with Baker.

  • Baker reportedly “took issue” with Atout telling MJF what she had said about him in the locker room.

  • This prompted an investigation with a suspension being levied at Baker.

  • Baker is reportedly still planned to wrestle at AEW All In.

    Regardless of the reasoning, quite glad to see the ‘a committee was put together to settle these things quickly.’ part. No month long investigation, no quibbling and online bullshit, just “you fucked up, you’re an idiot, go home, now” the way it should be.
