Below are a couple of top AEW & WWE news stories of the day, featuring Britt Baker and the Hall of Fame.
• Britt Baker is not leaving AEW despite her extended absence and recent reports of backstage issues.
According to Fightful Select, she is simply taking time off. Sean Ross Sapp hinted at personal challenges affecting her break but didn’t provide details.
While there are no creative plans for her return yet, Baker has been focusing on outside projects, including Cobra Kai.
PWTorch recently reported that Baker has allegedly become increasingly difficult to work with, and a minor incident in recent months served as the “straw that broke the camel’s back,” leading AEW to stop booking the former Women’s World Champion. The report also noted that Tony Khan is “fed up” with her.

• The WWE Hall of Fame ceremony takes place during WrestleMania weekend. In recent years, the ceremony has taken place right after SmackDown.
However, WWE is considering a change this year and the ceremony might not take place during WrestleMania 41 weekend.
Here’s what WrestleVotes reported:
“After speaking with sources, we’ve heard varying speculation about when and where the 2025 WWE Hall of Fame ceremony will take place. Some within the company strongly dislike the recent format of the ceremony following SmackDown. We’re told WWE is considering a change, with no mention of the time or place in any WM promotional material so far.”
Triple H and Michelle McCool have been announced for this year’s Hall of Fame class so far.
