5 Bold predictions for AEW Double or Nothing 2021

#3 Britt Baker ends Hikaru Shida's year-long title reign in AEW

Exactly 1 year ago at #DoubleOrNothing, @docsampson13 described @realbrittbaker as a "real high-maintenance" patient as she rehabbed the leg injury that knocked her off the show. As for @shidahikaru, she won the @AEW women's world title from @nylarosebeast. And here we are now... pic.twitter.com/tqZQhXc4fB

Hikaru Shida will defend her AEW women's championship against Dr. Britt Baker in what is going to be the most intriguing matches this Sunday.

Hikaru Shida has absolutely carried the AEW women's division on her back for over a year, through the entire pandemic era. She has defended her title against all comers and worked her socks off to earn the feat of longest reigning Women's Champion in AEW history.

The company even honored her this week by presenting a new title to her. However, like they say 'all good things must come to an end'.

She faces the biggest challenge of her career so far in the form of Dr. Britt Baker, who quickly ascended to the top of the women's division.

We expect Britt Baker to become the new AEW women's champion this Sunday. Given her recent character work and matches, there's no better time like the present to put the title around her waist.

As unfortunate as it seems for Hikaru Shida to lose her title right after she's honored with a new belt, it makes sense to pull the trigger on Britt Baker this weekend and start the new era of D.M.D.
