Current AEW Women’s Champion Britt Baker spoke to Fandom Spotlite at the Steel City Con 2021 and opened up about her influences while she was training to become a pro wrestler. Then, Britt Baker named WWE Stars Bayley and Sasha Banks as her role models
“Probably Bayley or Sasha [Banks]. It’d have to be one of them because those are two of my role models that I watched when I was first training to be a wrestler, so that’s something — but I mean that’s five years ago so that’s when I was training, they were main-eventing NXT TakeOver so that was when the tides were turning, they kind of paved the wave for my generation of wrestling even though they’re still my generation, they came before me.” (H/T: POST Wrestling)
