Fans have reacted to this and were confused by TK's statements. Many fans wondered why he could not book her return, seeing as he has the most influence within the company. They were dumbfounded by his statements.

Others could no longer believe him as he was either giving vague or contradicting statements. One fan claimed that he should let Baker go to WWE, seeing as there were no immediate plans for her, unlike other stars such as Toni Storm and Mercedes Moné.

How long does Britt Baker have left in her contract?

There has been speculation that Britt Baker could go to WWE following her extended absence from AEW. There have also been reports that the Stamford-based promotion has shown interest in her.

Earlier this month, during a Q&A Session by Fightful Select Answers, Sean Ross Sapp provided information on Baker's contract. As it stands, she still has a year on her deal. However, this is barring injury time, and this could add another year to her deal. This means that her contract will end sometime in 2027.

“Her contract goes at least a year. At least a year. And then they could add injury time to it, assuming it’s like every other deal. That would take her well into 2027.”

Baker is also reportedly ready for in-ring competition, so it seems like the ball is in AEW's court. With roughly two months to go in the year, it remains to be seen whether fans will get to see her make her return before 2025 comes to an end.
