AEW Women’s Division star Dr. Britt Baker, D.M.D. has named Julia Hart as her ‘Rookie of the Year’ after 2023.

After a big character shift after Double or Nothing 2022 and going on to capture the TBS Championship at Full Gear 2023  Julia Hart has had an impressive rise.

In an interview with Ring the Belle, Dr. Britt Baker, D.M.D. named Hart one of her favorites and ‘rookie of the year’ saying:

“I think especially Julia Hart, I would pick her as my favorite, my rookie of the year I guess, just because it’s a hard task, that character jump that she went from.

“When I wrestled her, I might have been her first, one of her first if not her first matches on AEW. It was a Dynamite match and I think it was maybe 30 seconds, maybe.

“She was the cheerleader. Yeah, it’s so weird, right?

“And now look at this character that she is now and it takes a lot to really go all in on that because if people don’t believe you believe what you’re doing, you’re not selling that to anybody.

“But she’s all in on it and her in-ring has gotten so much better but it’s the character.

“That’s what’s gonna win the people over more because you want them to care about your matches before you have the match and if you can get that, cross that bridge, that’s half the battle.

For the statistically minded, to clarify: Dr. Baker was Julia Hart’s third match in AEW overall but her first on Dynamite.
