AEW Women's World Champion Dr. Britt Baker D.M.D. is the most popular female wrestler currently performing in All Elite Wrestling.
The real life dentist is currently in the midst of her first reign as AEW Women's World Champion. Baker defeated former Women's Champion Hikaru Shida at the Double Or Nothing pay-per-view in May to capture the gold.

With another successful title defense in the books, the question now becomes, who will Britt Baker defend the AEW Women's World Championship against next? With that in mind, let's take a closer look at five AEW opponents for Dr. Britt Baker D.M.D.
#5. AEW wrestler Serena Deeb
Former NWA Women's Champion Serena Deeb is one of the most respected and accomplished wrestlers on the All Elite Wrestling roster. The former WWE Performance Center trainer made her AEW debut in September 2020, losing a match on AEW Dynamite to then NWA Women's Champion Thunder Rosa.
Deeb then shocked the professional wrestling world when she defeated Thunder Rosa in October 2020. In doing so, she became the NWA World Women's Champion for the first time at the United Wrestling Network's Primetime Live event on FITE.
Serena Deeb later dropped the NWA Women's Championship to NWA wrestler Kamille at the When Our Shadows Fall pay-per-view in June 2021. Deeb is reportedly currently working through a knee injury. The issue forced the AEW star to take some time off television earlier this year.
Whilst the status of her knee injury is unclear, she could certainly prove to be a more than fitting opponent for Dr. Britt Baker's AEW Women's World Championship.
#4. AEW wrestler Jade Cargill
AEW star Jade Cargill is arguably one of the members of the All Elite Wrestling roster that has the most main event potential. Cargill oozes charisma and star quality and carries herself like a bonafide game-changing superstar.
Jade Cargill made her AEW debut in November 2020 by interrupting Cody Rhodes on an episode of Dynamite. During this appearance, Cargill announced the impending arrival of NBA legend Shaquille O'Neal to All Elite Wrestling.
The former fitness model had been training at The Nightmare Factory under the tutoring of Dustin Rhodes and QT Marshall prior to her AEW debut. She made her first in-ring appearance on the March 3, 2021 'The Crossroads' edition of Dynamite, teaming up with Shaquille O'Neal to defeat Cody Rhodes and Red Velvet in a mixed tag team match.
Since then, Cargill has acquired the services of Mark Sterling and mainly competed on AEW Dark. Boasting a singles record of 8-0 in AEW, it is surely only a matter of time before Jade Cargill receives a Women's Championship opportunity against Britt Baker.
#3. AEW wrestler Kris Statlander
AEW star Kris Statlander has been on a roll since returning to All Elite Wrestling after a lengthy period on the sidelines due to injury.
Statlander was challenging for the Women's Championship in 2020 before she suffered an ACL injury during an episode of Dynamite in June that year. After nine months out of action, The Galaxy's Favorite Alien returned on the March 31, 2021 episode of Dynamite, assisting Chuck Taylor and Orange Cassidy in Arcade Anarchy against Miro and Kip Sabian.
Since then, Statlander has found herself aligned with Best Friends on AEW television. However, it would appear that she has her sights set firmly on the Women's World Championship once again.
Kris Statlander got physical with the AEW Women's World Champion on the premiere episode of AEW Rampage last week after Britt Baker defeated Red Velvet in the main event.
Statlander was then attacked by the returning Jamie Hayter, who came to Baker's aid. Nevertheless, the seeds have already been planted for an eventual Statlander and Baker showdown.
#2. Rumored AEW signing Ruby Soho
AEW signing former WWE Superstar Ruby Soho has been rumored for several weeks now.
The former WWE Superstar was released by WWE on June 2, 2021 as part of the ongoing "budget cuts" cited by the company, leading to mass releases of talents, employees and agents this year.
Since then, it has been reported that Soho will become All Elite in the very near future. The former Riott Squad leader is well regarded as one of the most reliable female in-ring performers going today and also boasts a professional reputation that some wrestlers can only dream of.
Ruby Soho recently dropped a teaser vignette on her social media platforms, indicating the beginning of a new chapter in her professional wrestling career. Whilst there hasn't been any official confirmation that she has signed with AEW, many are assuming that these teases are the beginning of her journey to All Elite Wrestling.
Perhaps Ruby Soho will make her AEW debut in the biggest way possible, by going straight after the AEW Women's Champion Britt Baker and picking a fight.
#1. AEW wrestler Thunder Rosa
Former NWA Women's Champion Thunder Rosa made her AEW debut on Dynamite in August 2020. After unsuccessfully challenging for the AEW Women's Championship at All Out against Hikaru Shida, Rosa continued to make appearances for the promotion.
During these AEW appearances, Dr. Britt Baker D.M.D. has emerged as Thunder Rosa's biggest rival. The two stars began feuding in November 2020 on AEW television, regularly brawling after matches and fighting at ringside.
This rivalry led to their famous Unsanctioned Lights Out match on the St. Patrick's Day Slam edition of AEW Dynamite on March 17, 2021. The violent and bloody match between Thunder Rosa and Britt Baker marked the first time that women had main evented an episode of Dynamite. The match was also widely praised and critically acclaimed by fans and journalists alike.
Whilst the unsanctioned match does not count towards the official AEW rankings, Thunder Rosa defeated Britt Baker in the Lights Out match, meaning she does own a victory over the Women's World Champion.
This could mean that Thunder Rosa may be next in line to challenge for the AEW Women's Championship once again.
