Growing Concern in the AEW Locker Room – TJR Wrestling

Concerns remain in the AEW locker room.

In recent weeks, it was revealed that Britt Baker was suspended following an incident involving MJF and Alicia Atout. According to multiple reports, Baker made a series of derogatory remarks about the former World Champion, which were returned to the star via his partner Alicia Atout.

This allegedly led to confrontations between MJF and Baker and Baker and Atout, with MJF hitting a wall.

Despite these reports, MJF has repeatedly claimed that the incident was exaggerated and that “almost everything that was written didn’t happen.” He also insists that the mood in the locker room is higher than many outside the company believe.

AEW stars concerned about popularity

However, after the positive response to MJF, there was also a word of caution. Dave Meltzer wrote in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter that while everyone was generally getting along well, there were still concerns about recent attendance and popularity.

In some cases the dressing room is better. I think the difference is that most people get on and like Tony Khan, but there are concerns about viewership and popularity that didn’t exist before.

In the locker room, there is generally a good relationship. The MJF/Britt Baker/Alicia Atout thing happened, the story there was true and there were suspensions, but it was exaggerated to a certain extent.

At All In, MJF will defend the American Title against Will Ospreay and Britt Baker will challenge Mercedes Mone for the TBS Championship.
