It looks like AEW will be getting a brand new title division starting soon.
AEW Trio’s championships have been reported for a while. Most recently, it was reported that the titles were made and awaiting debut. There is a wealth of trio’s teams in AEW ranging from The Blackpool Combat Club to the AFO and more. Fans are excited to see what kind of matches AEW can have in a trio’s tag division.
During an interview with TSN, Tony Khan confirmed reports that the championships had been made:
“I saw Dave reported it and nobody’s asked me on the record yet, but it is truthful that I have made the belts.
“I made them a long time ago, to be honest with you.
“They’ve never been seen, and I did have them made. I do have more championship belts in my possession that have never been unveiled than anybody might suspect. The TBS Championship was in my office for months at the shows before anybody knew it was going to be unveiled, for example, recently.
“The Ring of Honor purchase and now the great stable of champions[hips] and IP and, not only the legacy of past events, but the great slate of, I think, potential future events we can do with Ring of Honor and all that was kind of a surprise to everybody that we kept under wraps. That came together more quickly, whereas the trios championships are something I’ve thought about for a long time.
“But there are more championship belts than people might think that I’ve had up my sleeve and the trios championship are, arguably, the foremost.”

It should be interesting to see what other championships Tony has up his sleeve for future championship divisions. Tony has been looking to add the trio’s title to the list of active AEW championships since 2020. Who do you think should be inaugural AEW Trios Champions?
