Britt Baker has shifted her focus more toward wrestling, explaining that her dental career had become challenging to manage due to fan interactions and her busy AEW schedule.
She described her dental office feeling like a Comic Con, with fans taking up appointment slots for autographs and photos, and some even making her staff feel unsafe.
The exhaustion of juggling both careers, such as traveling back and forth between Las Vegas and Orlando for events, led her to prioritize wrestling. While she still helps loyal patients or during emergencies, wrestling is now her main focus.
Here’s what the former AEW Women’s World Champion told Diamond Dallas Page:
“Not anywhere near as much as I used to. It was turning into like a Comic Con since you can find me. People were coming in and asking for autographs, and pictures and they’d take up appointment slots and my staff were like, ‘Yo, we gotta make money and this isn’t it, Britt.’
Then there’s some scary fans, it was like ‘Call the cops, they’re gonna come kill us.’ I’m like okay, with the travels, especially with Dynamite, Collision and pay-per-views.
The one Vegas loop, I did Dynamite in Vegas, that night flew the Red Eye back to Orlando and worked all day Thursday, took the Red-eye back for Rampage on Friday. It was crazy and it’s not good for anyone since you need sleep and rest.
I had to move my schedule around so much for my patients. When they need me, they call me, I’m there. If the doctors are sick, or if it’s some of my ride-or-die patients who won’t see anyone else, but right now wrestling has to be at the forefront.”
