Comebacks are sad. I'd rather remember him as he was.

He lives on Maui.  My friend who trains with him said Aaron was looking great.  He thought was going to make a comeback. I haven't heard anything since.  Aaron was nice enough to do some photos for Muscle Mafia.

This is what was in the November issue of Kaged Muscle ;)

Venice Insider
My daily dose of morning cardio was disrupted recently as I walked out of my apartment door only to find a Minister standing before me wearing a weights belt.

My double take at the holy one wasn't prompted because of the described attire though; it was the familiar bat shaped wings that draped over the belt that prompted me to un- blasphemously say to myself -- "Holy crap"!

Aaron Baker was not only back from his Hawaii hibernation but he was in my apartment complex.

"I have been in Hawaii for 3 1/2 years now" Aaron told Kaged Muscle. "I have completed my ministry studies and I have now moved back to LA (in Woodland Hills) as a full time Minister".

Aaron was as overlooked as much as Jockey in a basketball squad during his competitive days but today he is as happy and content as Elmer Fudd after catching that "pesky wabbit".

When I asked Aaron if we would ever be blessed to see his presence on the bodybuilding stage again, shaking his head he replied "God put bodybuilding to the  side of life's pit stop, now I have passed on reached my destination. I thank god that the place I am in now doesn't include spandex pants".

Those last pictures you posted of him were awesome.  At 5'10 and 46 years old he looked a lot younger and still close to competition level.  The last show he competed at was the 2003 Ironman and I will have to go grab that DVD and get some screencaps of him and post them since I didn't see any in my review.  He looked awesome at 42 years young!

I have his posing routine from that show. He was really full and conditioned.

Good for him. Gotta put away the posing oil, grow up and get a real job someday.

IMO...Aaron was the most overlooked/black-listed BB in history.

In his prime....he was the best.....without a doubt.


I guarantee there's a lot of old Pro's out there that were happy when he was blacklisted.  Otherwise, their career would never have flourished.

The truth is that Baker was a sensational BB in his time.
I say in his time, cause today we easily forget who he competed against.

Now, ask your self WHY did not this guy make it to the top. I know the answer, but it all comes back to politics...

It was. And, honestly, I think he'd enjoy hearing it said from a fan.

Aaron was definitely a class act and had the body to go with it.The WBF did him in, as well as everyone else. Watch the 04 or 05 Olympia, should have placed ALOT higher....

He should have went into wrestling.  Mcmahon did him in you're right.

The weiders are not forgiving.

I want my supplement money back from their misreps when I was a kid.

He did it was now defunct all black wrestling league. It was funny to watch. He was a ringleader and and had a side girl and all. He would talk /threaten dudes from ringside.

According to an interview in MUSCLEMAG, Aaron had a run-in with Wayne DeMilia in Europe on one of the post-Olympia grand prix tours, when DeMilia demanded that Aaron pay him over $1000 on the spot for money owed the organization, & Aaron basically lost it & threatened him.  He said he never got a decent placing after that.  He was also asked if he had ever considered using hGH.  He said, as I recall, "I wish I could have AFFORDED to use it."

Interesting stuff. Cross the Weiders AND punk DeMilia? Yeah, your placings are definitely going into the toilet after that.
