* SugarWiki/AwesomeMoments: Her unsanctioned lights-out match against Thunder Rosa on the 17th of March "St Patrick's Day Slam" special episode of ''AEW Dynamite'' was the match that ''solidified'' Britt as the top woman in AEW. A full-bore hardcore match where the two women ''destroyed each other'' with every weapon they could get their hands on, Britt may have lost, but she proved herself to be the toughest woman in AEW just for being able to stand up to Rosa (who at the time was still actually an [[Wrestling/NationalWrestlingAlliance NWA]] wrestler) for as long as she did, being busted open and bleeding until she'd rated ''at least'' an 0.5 on the [[Wrestling/KeijiMutoh Muta Scale]], taking a Death Valler Driver from the turnbuckle across a propped-up ladder and then a flat back powerbomb onto ''a pile of thumbtacks'', and needing Rosa to give her ''a Thunder Driver off the apron through a table'' to beat her. The legendary Wrestling/MickFoley himself [[https://twitter.com/RealMickFoley/status/1372392277696479235 gave it his seal of approval]].
