Tony Khan is uncomfortable dealing with Britt Baker; paying her money to sit at home, says Jim Cornette

A wrestling veteran claimed that Tony Khan is unable to deal with a former AEW Women's World Champion. The veteran also believes that Khan is paying the star to sit at home.

Tony Khan is uncomfortable with the major AEW name, Dr. Britt Baker, according to wrestling veteran Jim Cornette. Baker has not been on TV since November last year, and fans are still anticipating her return. Last week, Dynamite was in Pittsburgh, which is Britt's hometown, but she didn't even show up there.

Speaking on his The Experience podcast, Jim Cornette said that Tony is paying Britt to stay at home:

"Well, you don't think she's still in the wrestling business, do you? How long has it been since anybody's seen her? She's got a contract with a billionaire who will send a cheque to her house every week or every two weeks, whatever the pay period is. She never has to show up, go anywhere. He's obviously uncomfortable dealing with her. So he's put her on ice and she can just sit there and make her money and do nothing," Cornette said.
