5 Theories Why Britt Baker didn't win the Women's Casino Battle Royale

AEW All Out had a great start to the PPV with the Women's Casino Battle Royale on the Buy In pre-show. Much like Double or Nothing, the Women's Casino Battle Royale didn't disappoint. If anything, the match surpassed the men's match by a mile.

Featuring a couple of former WWE Superstars including Tenille Dashwood, it had the advantage of surprise. The Women's Casino Battle Royale even had a wild card in the form of Mercedes Martinez. The match was much cleaner than the men's match at DoN, and the camera work didn't disappoint this time around.

As already reported, the winner of this match would take on the winner of Riho vs. Hikaru Shida for the AEW Women's Championship. While predictions are pointing to Hikaru winning that match, it won't be surprising that Riho wins the match. The AEW Women's champion will be crowned on the opening AEW on TNT show.

It was predicted that Britt Baker would win this match, but AEW went a different direction. Nyla Rose was one of the first entrants in the match and ended up being the last woman in the match. In essence, it was fitting that Nyla Rose won the match, but shocking that Britt Baker didn't win. Here are 5 Theories why Britt Baker didn't win the Women's Casino Battle Royale.

#5 There is a long term plan for Britt Baker

Britt Baker has everything going for her. She is a practicing dentist, fantastic in the ring, and is over with the audience. In a way, her squeaky clean image is reminiscent of John Cena. With that in mind, perhaps, AEW wanted to swerve the audience to create a bigger impact. Moreover, perhaps, they want to book Britt Baker to go on her journey to win the AEW Women's Championship.

#4 Giving Nyla Rose her first win in AEW

Since Double or Nothing, it's worth noting that Nyla Rose had not won a match in the company. When fans start looking at the numbers, it's quite daunting. Nyla Rose was supposed to be the "monster" of the division and she has been anything but.

By having her win the Casino Battle Royale, it's a way of rebooting her going forward. She dominated the Battle Royal from the beginning and most of the participants were trying to eliminate her. She had the most eliminations in the match and proved that she was here to be taken seriously.

#3 Giving a surprise for AEW on TNT

Assuming that Riho wins her match against Hikaru Shida, it would make for great storyline sense. Riho did beat her at Fyter Fest in a match that included Yuka Sakazaki. Moreover, the first women's championship would have a "David vs Goliath" match which has worked wonders for athletes like Brock Lesnar.

The contrasting styles make for great TV and AEW is making it a historic night once they debut on TNT. It'll be interesting who is going to come out on top.

#2 Britt Baker will be showcased on TNT

One of the issues that AEW has been facing is that there has been little to no TV when booking their events. With AEW on TNT, All Elite Wrestling will fix one of the glaring issues that have been plaguing their booking since the company got things at Double or Nothing.

While social media has been great for AEW, there are multiple reasons why TV allows for more time for AEW to showcase their talent. They want to introduce someone like Britt Baker to a wider audience as well as establishing her as a top babyface.

#1 Britt Baker will take on Nyla Rose at the next PPV

If you think about it, AEW is paving the path for Nyla Rose being the first AEW Women's Champion. Establishing her as a dominant force would require a special type of wrestler to take her down. Britt Baker vs Nyla Rose is a PPV type of match and will not happen on TV. AEW on TNT will be where the buildup happens down the line.

Will this happen? Only time will tell in the months to come. When AEW on TNT actually begins, things are going to get interesting.
