Where is Britt Baker? Are the rumors true that she I done with AEW?
She's taking some time off, but no other context is needed. She is not done with AEW. I'd imagine if many people understood a number of the things she'd experienced outside the ring, they'd probably give her more credit for how the last couple of years had went. Outside of that, she's been working on the Cobra Kai appearance.
This is may be a silly question but any reason why AEW hasn’t added a 90 day no compete clause to their contracts (or is there a reason why they don’t) Seems like maaaaybe it may be time to do so
Originally, AEW had not even planned on releasing talent. There were a number of wrestlers like Melanie Cruise, Awesome Kong and others that AEW continue to pay even when they weren't being used or couldn't wrestle. 90 day non-competes are worked into WWE deals, and they're barely non-competes. You're still with the company during that period and getting paid.
Hey Sean any update on Speedball Mike Bailey? Last I remember he was expected to sign with AEW any idea when he will debut?
He was expected to go to AEW pretty well from the time he'd reached his last dates with AEW. There are rumors internally that he is in the process of procuring his visa with AEW.

I wonder how much having the deportation/5 year ban on his immigration record affects Speedball's visa applications

2025-02-19 21:14:12 +0000 UTCThat was my question, I really didn’t take the answer as rude. I took it as there was some personal stuff going on with her that hasn’t been given to the general public. All of us Britt fans are just confused because she has been brought back twice to only disappear again for long periods of time.

2025-02-19 20:19:23 +0000 UTC“No other context is needed” is a rude way to answer a basic question a fan asked. Not everyone lives on the internet and knows every single detail of what goes on. And no that wasn’t my question but I don’t see how it was wrong of someone to ask
