Who do you think takes the title off Britt Baker (DMD)?

[Deleted]

While the tea leaves are certainly pointing toward Thunder Rosa, I could see a face turn in Cargill's future as it's apparent that AEW is high on her and she's getting over with the crowd.

[Xxcjb01xX [PIECE OF: SH-]]

I think with the setup on Rampage this week, it has to be Rosa. It's all pointing to a big showdown where Britt loses her title and potentially Hayter's services as well

[asuka007]

It should be Rosa. Especially after Rampage last week.

Then they can do a Britt/Hayter split after Britt loses the title hopefully.

[Instant Classic]

No one, she will break Bruno’s record of being champion.

[Hypnosis]

Rosa.

Baker can feud with Hayter after Revolution.

[Finish Uncle Muffin’s Story]

My guess right now is it goes Britt to Thunder Rosa, then Ruby beats Jade for the TNT Title at some point and then Jade takes the world title off Rosa. Maybe won't happen for a calendar year, but that's my best guess as to the direction it'll go. It's clear they think Jade's going to be a pretty big deal for them.

Let me be clear - this is all assuming that Jade continues to develop at the rate we've seen lately.

Thunder Rosa. The internet theory that Britt hired Mercedes Matinez to mess with Rosa turned into reality on the last Rampage.

If they sign Athena, i see her going for the other title.

[ghost]

Thunder Rosa. They set up the angle on Rampage so that looks like where they are headed.

Now if they have Britt beat Rosa, then I give up trying to guess.

Hayter isn't on the poll but after Rampage that's who I think it should be.

I can't help but feel like Hayter is going to break off from Britt's posse and go after Jade

All I care about is that someone finally does.

I second this with the condition that the champion be given as much importance as Britt. If they put the new champ on Dark while Britt is on tv, they might as well just keep the title on her.

[Mozenrath]

Thunder Rosa, almost certainly. It makes sense, too, given Rosa's so consistently had Britt's number that Britt cost her the NWA title, and seemingly now, the TBS title. She's thoroughly under Britt's skin.

It's a shame about Britt's reign not being what it could have been. As a character, she works significantly better when she has a grievance, but as champion, she's just kind of constantly in gloating mode because she's so rarely had any real setbacks to speak of. The Riho feud felt like a revelation due to how it was so much better handled than any other feud she's had with the title. Riho had beaten her in the past, and Britt had never got one over on her. During the feud, Riho against beat her several times, clean, and Britt had to scramble not to lose the title. That was great. Just wish we had a bit more of that this reign, but c'est la vie.

[Kalmia]

It has to be Rosa.

I can't see Cargill dropping the TBS title any time soon and they're not going to do title for title. Baker has already defeated pretty much everyone else and I think she's been kept away from Rosa for this long purely so they can do the title match and change.

Right. They've definitely gone out of their way to keep Britt away from Thunder Rosa and Hikaru Shida. With Shida, it made sense given she was the previous champion and they tend to generally keep former champions away from current champions, with the exception I guess of the TNT title. With Rosa, it has in all likelihood been to be the one to beat her.

If not Rosa, it'd be difficult to figure out who even would be next. Maybe Ryo Mizunami, but as much as I like her and as generally credible as she's been, she definitely isn't someone with momentum at the moment.

[Tiffany Stratton's Daddy]

Thunder Rosa would be a big pop. Unfortunately, it might be Ruby Soho. When they faced each other the first time, they kinda hinted at it. I just hope it's Rosa

The problem with most of Baker's title matches is her lackeys constantly interfere, Baker kicks out of finishers even though she's supposed to be a heel, and then wins clean, making the cheating pointless.

I prefer matches where the wrestlers try to avoid getting hit with finishers so that they're not devalued, so it's not just a Baker thing.

[raymondo316]

Thunder Rosa and I hope it's soon.

Britt does not need to hold the title till Double or Nothing, Tony Khan needs to realise that every title reign doesn't need to be nearly a year.

I don't see her making it out of Revolution with the belt. They try to make their PPVs feel eventful, and she's the current champion who seems the most likely to lose her title. Like, maybe the tag titles will be lost, too, but she feels the closest to being dethroned.

[holyshida]

Thunder Rosa is really the only choice here. She should've already dethroned Britt by now
