When did AEW first approach Dr. Britt Baker, D.M.D. about their new All Access show?
Apparently before Adam Cole signed with the company.
The women’s wrestling star recently spoke with the folks from 13WHAM ABC Rochester for an interview, during which she spoke about when she was first approached about the AEW All Access show.
Featured below are some of the highlights.
On how AEW approached her about doing a show of his nature prior to the Undisputed One signing with the promotion back in 2021: “They (AEW) approached me originally and talked about how I’m a dentist and a wrestler and if I would be willing to have that filmed as a docuseries and at first, I was kind of taken aback because for me, it’s just my life and it’s not that interesting so I was like, ‘Are you sure? You wanna make this on a show?…’ Adam (Cole) was not with AEW yet so he wasn’t even an option to be part of this so then when he finally did sign with All Elite Wrestling, they were so excited. They said, ‘Oh my gosh, will he be a part of this? Will he let us in his life?”
On how she initially thought that Cole would be uninterested in being involved in All Access, but he actually said yes: “‘I don’t think he’s gonna do it. I think that’s a big no’ and he surprised me, he surprised all of us when he said, ‘Yes. Of course, I would love to’ and right before we started filming, he had the second head injury and I thought, oh boy, that’s a wrap and again, he surprised me when he said, ‘No, I wanna film this. I want everybody to see what I’m going through and what this sport, what this world is.’”
