It&#8217;s Britt Baker&#8217;s time. Hikaru Shida held the championship at a pivotal moment in the company&#8217;s history and deserves the utmost praise for helping to set a foundation for the AEW women&#8217;s division to grown on. With that said, Baker appears poised and ready to carry the division into the future.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>CATCH-UP:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/2021\/05\/30\/aew-announces-date-and-location-for-all-out-full-gear-details-also-revealed\/\">AEW announces date and location for All Out, Full Gear details also revealed<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"pwtor-end-article-groups pwtor-entity-placement\" id=\"pwtor-1106694445\"><div id=\"pwtor-4114506895\"><div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280\" id=\"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\", slotId: \"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\nTHANK YOU FOR VISITING<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Britt Baker is the new AEW Women&#8217;s World Champion.
