Tony Khan announces long-awaited return of major AEW star for Dynamite this week

Tony Khan announced the long-awaited return of a major AEW star for Dynamite this week. This announcement was one that fans were waiting to hear for a long time. The star who will return is Britt Baker.

Baker made her return after over nine months at Forbidden Door III and confronted Mercedes Mone after she defeated Stephanie Vaquer to become a dual champion. The crowd went ballistic as the former Women's World Champion showed up after a long injury layoff.

All Elite Wrestling President Tony Khan took to X/Twitter to announce Baker’s return on Dynamite this week and assured the fans that they would hear from her firsthand.

“This Wednesday, July 3 Chicago @WintrustArena #AEWDynamite Beach Break Presented by #SharkWeek. We'll hear from @RealBrittBaker this Wednesday! After returning at #AEWForbiddenDoor, we'll hear from Dr Britt Baker DMD for the first time this year LIVE in Chicago THIS WEDNESDAY!”

Bully Ray makes a prediction about Britt Baker after her return to AEW

Bully Ray has made a daring prediction regarding Britt Baker's immediate future following her return to the Jacksonville-based promotion.

While speaking on the Busted Open podcast, the WWE Hall of Famer revealed that Baker is now a babyface in AEW and predicted what could happen between her and TBS Champion Mercedes Mone.

"We heard the ovation last night. Britt Baker is a babyface as of right this very second. She is a babyface; she should be used like a babyface; she should be given verbiage as a babyface; she should be doing babyface stuff. If I was Britt Baker, the very first promo I cut, if she's face to face with Mercedes, I would have Britt Baker tell Mercedes, 'You know what, Mercedes? Hold on. I'm gonna go hang out with the people that actually mean something to me in this place.' I would have Britt Baker jump the guardrail and go cut her promo in the middle of the people."

That is some prediction, and it will be interesting to see if Tony Khan will go ahead and take heed of Bully Ray.
