All Elite Wrestling (AEW) is an American professional wrestling promotion based in Jacksonville, Florida, and is considered the second largest wrestling promotion in the United States behind WWE. Title reigns are either determined by professional wrestling matches or are awarded to a wrestler as a result of the culmination of various scripted storylines.

Contents

There are currently 10 active championships in AEW, with five singles championships, one traditional tag team championship, and one six-man tag team championship for male wrestlers, and two singles championships and one tag team championship for female wrestlers. Championships from AEW's sister promotion Ring of Honor are also occasionally defended on AEW programming; its titles can be found at the respective Ring of Honor list.

As of January3, 2026, 13 wrestlers hold AEW's championships (including one double champion). This list includes the number of times the wrestler has held the title, the date and location of the win, and a description of the winning bout.

Overview

The American professional wrestling promotion All Elite Wrestling (AEW) promotes several professional wrestling championships for its men's and women's divisions. AEW often broadcasts championship matches on their weekly television programs— Wednesday Night Dynamite and Saturday Night Collision —as well as television specials. Championship defenses also occur at the promotion's periodic pay-per-view events.

Men

Singles

At the top of AEW's championship hierarchy for male wrestlers is the AEW World Championship. It is held by two-time champion MJF, who defeated previous champion Samoa Joe, Swerve Strickland, and "Hangman" Adam Page in a four-way match at Worlds End on December 27, 2025. [1]

The secondary title for male wrestlers is the AEW International Championship, which can be defended in other promotions globally. It is held by first-time champion Kazuchika Okada, who defeated Kenny Omega at All In on July 12, 2025, in a Winner Takes All Unification match in which Okada defended the Continental Championship, subsequently becoming the Unified Champion; [2] after Okada lost the Continental Championship at Worlds End on December 27, 2025, it ended the unification, rendering the Unified title inactive. [3]

Three other singles titles for male wrestlers include the AEW TNT Championship, the AEW Continental Championship, and the AEW National Championship. The TNT Championship is a television championship, while the Continental Championship is defended under Continental Rules—matches have a 20-minute time limit, no one is allowed at ringside, and outside interference is strictly prohibited—and similar to the International title, the National Championship can be defended in other promotions across the United States. The TNT Championship is held by first-time champion Mark Briscoe, who defeated Kyle Fletcher in a no disqualification match at Full Gear on November 22, 2025; had Briscoe lost the match, he would have been forced to join Fletcher in the Don Callis Family. [4] The Continental Championship is held by first-time champion Jon Moxley, who defeated Kazuchika Okada in the 2025 Continental Classic final at Worlds End on December 27, 2025. [5] The National Championship is held by Ricochet, who became the inaugural champion by pinning Kevin Knight in a 12-man Casino Gauntlet match at Full Gear on November 22, 2025. [6]

Tag Team

The AEW World Tag Team Championship is AEW's traditional tag team title, being contested by teams of two wrestlers. It is held by record-tying three-time champions FTR (Cash Wheeler and Dax Harwood). They defeated Brodido (Brody King and Bandido) at Full Gear on November 22, 2025. [7]

The AEW World Trios Championship is a six-man tag team championship, contested by teams of three wrestlers, referred to as trios. It is held by first-time champions The Opps (Samoa Joe, Powerhouse Hobbs, and Katsuyori Shibata), who defeated the Death Riders (Claudio Castagnoli, Wheeler Yuta, and Jon Moxley) [a] at Dynamite: Spring BreakThru on April 16, 2025. [8]

Triple Crown & Grand Slam recognition

A male wrestler who has won the World, World Tag Team, and World Trios Championships is recognized to have won the AEW Triple Crown. [9] A wrestler who has won the three aforementioned titles plus the International Championship, in no particular order, is recognized to have won the AEW Grand Slam. [10]

Kenny Omega is the first and so far only wrestler to have achieved both the Triple Crown and Grand Slam accolades in AEW. He completed the Triple Crown when he won the inaugural World Trios Championship with The Young Bucks (Matt Jackson and Nick Jackson) at All Out on September 4, 2022. [9] He then completed the Grand Slam when he won the International Championship at Revolution on March 9, 2025. [10]

Women

Singles

At the top of AEW's championship hierarchy for female wrestlers is the AEW Women's World Championship. It is held by first-time champion Kris Statlander, who defeated Thekla, Jamie Hayter, and previous champion "Timeless" Toni Storm in a four-way match at All Out on September 20, 2025. [11]

The secondary title for female wrestlers is the AEW TBS Championship, which is also a television championship. It is held by record two-time champion Willow Nightingale, who defeated Mercedes Moné at Dynamite: New Year's Smash on December 31, 2025. [12]

Tag Team

The women's tag team title is the AEW Women's World Tag Team Championship. It is held by The Babes of Wrath (Harley Cameron and Willow Nightingale), who defeated Timeless Love Bombs ("Timeless" Toni Storm and Mina Shirakawa) in a tournament final to become the inaugural champions at Dynamite: Winter Is Coming on December 10, 2025.
