Dr. Britt Baker is arguably o one of the top female stars in AEW locker room. When she first started out in the company, she was a babyface. However, her character work changed for the better after she turned heel.
Britt Baker spoke on the Sunday Night’s Main Event podcast, where she discussed her heel character in All Elite Wrestling. She revealed that it was Kenny Omega who ultimately helped her in becoming a heel. Since the company’s inception, Omega has been keeping a close eye on the AEW women’s division.
Baker revealed that she was approached by Kenny Omega once, where he asked her what she thought of possibly turning heel. Baker replied that she was open to performing any role in the company.
“It was Kenny Omega, Kenny ‘The Cleaner. “He had the idea of turning me heel. I remember I was in the ring one day just training, he came up and talked to me about it. He’s like ‘what do you think about being a heel? We don’t really have any heels and, you know, maybe this would work.’”
“And I just remember saying ‘I’m down to do anything’ and I will always try anything” Dr Britt Baker would continue. “But at that point in my wrestling career I had never been a heel, [not even] once in my life. So, just like my whole experience of AEW? I was just kind of getting thrown into the fire, let’s go, let’s see if it works. And it did.”
