It comes with the job. A company’s champions tend to be its biggest stars, which makes a lot of sense. Most of the time, the more popular and successful wrestlers will be holding the gold, though that does bring some extra responsibility. Some of these responsibilities can include making various media appearances, which was the case for an AEW star this week. This time though, things got physical (in a way).
AEW Women’s World Champion Britt Baker appeared on a recent episode of the Nick Cannon Show during the Sneaky Freaky segment. Baker was initially announced as a dentist, before also revealing that she was a professional wrestler. She would go on to talk about getting into wrestling and balancing her two careers, as well as putting Cannon in her Lockjaw finishing hold.
Thanks for the invite @NickCannon ?

Opinion: The more you think about it, the more amazing Baker really is. Going to dental school is hard enough, but then balancing a full time dental practice and being a wrestler is a whole other world. Baker is managing to make two careers work and at least one of them is succeeding at a top level. She is the kind of star that AEW should have out there like this, as anyone would be impressed by someone being able to do make this work.
What do you think of Baker? How long will she hold the title? Let us know in the comments below.
