Britt Baker returned to AEW wrestling for the first time in nearly two years at All In London, immediately making an impact by costing Maya World her TBS Championship. SI reports that during the title match against CMLL Women's Champion Persephone, a masked attacker shoved World and helped secure Persephone's pin.
