5 Wrestlers who worked regular jobs before signing with AEW

#1. AEW Star Dr. Britt Baker, D.M.D.

Britt Baker has two full-time jobs. Besides being a pro-wrestler and the current AEW Women's Champion, Baker is also a practicing dentist.

The 30-year-old started her wrestling training at a young age. She also graduated from the University of Pittsburgh School of Dental Medicine in 2018. A year later, she joined AEW.

Unlike all the other AEW Stars on this list, Baker did not leave her job after becoming a full-time pro-wrestler. The AEW Women's Champion confessed that working two full-time jobs simultaneously is no easy task.

"Definitely takes mental toughness more than anything, because sometimes the schedule of everything that needs to be done in a day, going to the dental office, getting to the gym, getting to the wrestling ring, watching wrestling matches, keeping up to date what’s the latest science behind the industry," she told Diva Dirt.

Baker revealed that her secret to success is never panicking and powering forward to get everything done. Although many people have advised her to give up one of her two jobs, the 30-year-old does not intend to do that.

"It’s kind of hard to believe that I get to live out both of my dreams. Both of my dreams are a lot of people’s Plan A; I don’t have a Plan B, I have two Plan As. I’ve been given the greatest gift imaginable,” she explained to Pittsburgh Magazine.

Last May, Baker defeated Hikaru Shida at Double or Nothing to capture the AEW Women's Championship. She recently defended her title against Red Velvet at AEW Rampage.
