#3 Britt Baker's Departure from ROH

Baker ROH shocker

Before Britt Baker arrived in AEW, she was still booked with several other pro wrestling organizations. One of them was ROH (Ring of Honor). Lately, ROH has been in the news for all the wrong reasons, with the unfortunate firing of Kelly Klein. As a result, there has been a falling out. According to Fightful Select, shocking details have been revealed about Britt Baker's departure from the company.

It's been reported that her departure from ROH was handled very poorly. While Baker has several dates still left with the company, those dates were cut once she signed with AEW. People were told backstage by Joe Koff that ROH didn't need to meet the originally agreed upon dates.

In another surprising turn, Baker showed up to the ROH event not realizing that she had been cut from the show.Talent backstage had to plead with management about giving Baker a 5 minute match with Kelly Klein.

ROH has seen a poor round of publicity ever since the Kelly Klein incident. In the case of Britt Baker, she is now on a national cable TV network and her work is seen every other week by countless people.
