Britt Baker Returns at AEW All In and Costs Maya World the TBS Championship

Posted By: WNS Staff on Aug 30, 2026

Britt Baker made a dramatic return to AEW at All In 2026, making her presence felt immediately by costing Maya World the TBS Championship.

World entered the match as champion against Persephone, with both women producing a competitive contest that featured several close near falls.

Persephone came close to capturing the championship after connecting with a huge spear, but World managed to kick out. The champion responded with a bridging fallaway slam, only for Persephone to reach the ropes and prevent the three-count.

The match took a major turn during the closing stages when World sent Persephone to the outside with a wrecking ball dropkick before returning to the ring and heading towards the top rope.

As Persephone distracted referee Stephon Smith, a mysterious masked individual appeared and prevented World from completing her attack.

The interference gave Persephone the opening she needed, and she connected with a Tenryu Powerbomb to secure the three-count.

Persephone defeated Maya World by pinfall to become the new AEW TBS Champion.

However, the biggest moment came after the match.

As Persephone departed with her newly won championship, the masked individual entered the ring and confronted World.

The mystery person grabbed the former champion and applied Lockjaw, providing a major clue about their identity.

The attacker then removed the mask to reveal Britt Baker, confirming the former AEW Women's World Champion was back.

"DR. BRITT BAKER, DMD IS BACK!"

Baker's return immediately puts her into a new storyline with World, while Persephone leaves AEW All In as the new TBS Champion.

It remains to be seen why Baker targeted World or what she has planned following her return.
