Who are the current AEW champions in All Elite Wrestling? Which wrestlers could be next in line to hold the titles and win the belts from those champions?
Here is a list of all the AEW wrestlers who are holding a championship title right now and some predictions for who may dethrone them to become the next title-holder.
AEW WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP
Current champion
Will Ospreay
Won: August 30, 2026 at AEW All In
Next champion prediction
Kazuchika Okada
Prediction confidence:
Explanation: Okada should hold the AEW World Championship at some point, so he might as well be the one to dethrone Ospreay for it. I'm not particularly confident that's actually where AEW goes next, though. If it isn't Okada, Swerve Strickland would be my No. 2 pick.
AEW WOMEN'S WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP
Current champion
Mercedes Moné
Won: August 30, 2026 at AEW All In
Next champion prediction
Toni Storm
Prediction confidence:
Explanation: Thekla is next in line for a title shot at WrestleDream, but I don't think she's taking the championship from Moné. I'm still sticking with Toni Storm as the person who eventually dethrones her. I'd imagine AEW saves that for a bigger show farther down the line rather than rushing Storm back into the title picture immediately.
AEW WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP
Current champions
The Young Bucks (Matthew Jackson & Nicholas Jackson)
Won: September 26, 2026 at AEW All Out
Next champions prediction
Kyle Fletcher & Kevin Knight
Prediction confidence:
Explanation: Fletcher and Knight earned a future AEW World Tag Team Championship match by defeating Darby Allin and Steven Borden at All Out, so they're the most obvious candidates right now. That doesn't necessarily mean they'll beat the Young Bucks, but they're the best prediction until another team emerges as a stronger possibility.
AEW TNT CHAMPIONSHIP
Current champion
Darby Allin
Won: August 30, 2026 at AEW All In
Next champion prediction
Sheamus
Prediction confidence:
Explanation: I don't know.
AEW TBS CHAMPIONSHIP
Current champion
Persephone
Won: August 30, 2026 at AEW All In
Next champion prediction
Queen Aminata
Prediction confidence:
Explanation: I have no idea.
AEW INTERNATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP
Current champion
Kazuchika Okada
Won: August 30, 2026 at AEW All In
Next champion prediction
"Hangman" Adam Page
Prediction confidence:
Explanation: Hangman can't win the world title, so maybe he goes after this?
AEW CONTINENTAL CHAMPIONSHIP
Current champion
Jon Moxley
Won: December 27, 2025 at Worlds End
Next champion prediction
Samoa Joe
Prediction confidence:
Explanation: Well..um...you see...the thing is...LOOK OVER THERE!
AEW NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP
Current champion
Andrade El Idolo
Won: July 26, 2026 at AEW Redemption
Next champion prediction
Claudio Castagnoli or David Finlay
Prediction confidence:
Explanation: This is mostly a shot in the dark, but I'll say MJF ends up costing Andrade the title at some point during this Death Riders feud. If that happens, Claudio Castagnoli or David Finlay could be the recipient and walk away with the championship.
AEW WORLD TRIOS CHAMPIONSHIP
Current champions
Swerve Strickland & The New Level (Austin Creed & Kofi)
Won: August 30, 2026 at AEW All In
Next champions prediction
The Dogs
Prediction confidence:
Explanation: I'm mostly just throwing out a name here. It could just as easily be The Opps or some other trio entirely. I have no idea where AEW is going with these titles next, so I'll take a low-confidence guess with The Dogs.
AEW WOMEN'S WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP
Current champions
The Brawling Birds (Jamie Hayter & Alex Windsor)
Won: August 30, 2026 at AEW All In
Next champions prediction
Hikaru Shida and someone?
Prediction confidence:
Explanation: I have no idea.
