Britt Baker Addresses 'Book The Women's Division Better' Sign From AEW Dynamite
Britt Baker on the booking of the AEW women's division and more
Aug 2, 2023
Tony Khan has found himself under fire over the past week since the AEW Dynamite broadcast on July 26 panned to a sign urging the All Elite Wrestling CEO to "Book the Women's Division Better."
The sign was shown following Britt Baker's win over Taya Valkyrie on Dynamite and the former AEW Women's World Champion revealed what she thought about the moment to TV Insider.
"I see both sides to that because I completely agree. The absolute best matches that come out of professional wrestling come out of storylines you are so invested in. There are weeks and months that tell this beautiful story. It's something we haven't been able to invest as much time in the women's division lately. Again, there are many factors. Injuries, this and that. I definitely want to get to the point where we can get some solid storytelling with the women," Baker began.
"At the same time the fans who hold signs that say to book the women's division better, that's great. Then when I go on Twitter it doesn't echo that. I don't see the same support. It's I hate these two wrestlers. This match was too long. This match was too short. If all you see about women's wrestling is all negative online, it doesn't add up to what they are preaching. If you want the women to be booked better, support the women. You don't have to like every wrestler and every match. You also don't have to get on Twitter and preach from the mountaintops how much you hated things. Some stuff, keep to yourself," she continued.
"I can't tell you how many times I go to a restaurant and I don't like how my steak is cooked. I don't need to talk to the chef and take 30 pictures of the steak to tell them I don't like how this steak is cooked. There is too much invested in the negativity that it does so much harm. I hope people realise one day how much harm it does to not only the individuals and mental health, but to the industry as a whole."
