AEW's Current Champions & Future Champions Predictions

current All Elite Wrestling champions title holder

Who are the current champions in AEW?

Who do I think will beat them for the title?

AEW WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP

Current AEW Champion: Bryan Danielson

Prediction for Next Champion: Darby Allin or Swerve Strickland

Explanation: Either Swerve Strickland wins the title in Tacoma at WrestleDream, or maybe there's something to the idea of Danielson putting over Allin. I don't think that will necessarily happen at Grand Slam, but it could be the case.

AEW WOMEN'S WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP

Current AEW Women's Champion: Mariah May

Prediction for Next Champion: Jamie Hayter

Explanation: I have no idea when this will happen, but probably before 2024 is over?

AEW WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP

Current AEW Tag Team Champions: The Young Bucks

Prediction for Next Champions: No idea yet

Explanation: At the moment of The Young Bucks winning these titles, I don't know who I'd bank on. Maybe The Motor City Machine Guns? Or is that too easy of a call? I guess they might not even be signing with AEW, so not them?

AEW TNT CHAMPIONSHIP

Current AEW TNT Champion: Jack Perry

Prediction for Next Champion: Darby Allin or Ricochet

Explanation: Perry just won the title at Forbidden Door. Let's give it some time. I don't think Tony Khan has any idea who he wants to beat Perry for the title yet, and there are TONS of people who could fit the bill, from Kyle O'Reilly to HOOK to Ricochet, etc. I'd narrow it down more so to Darby Allin (who is feuding with Perry, will perpetually be tied to him as one of the Four Pillars, and has won the TNT title multiple times) or Ricochet just for something different.

AEW TBS CHAMPIONSHIP

Current AEW Tag Team Champion: Mercedes Moné

Prediction for Next Champion: Kamille

Explanation: Kamille eventually turns on her and beats her for the belt.

AEW INTERNATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP

Current AEW International / American Champion: Will Ospreay

Prediction for Next Champion: Daniel Garcia

Explanation: I could see this coming back around to Garcia beating MJF at All Out and eventually earning another match at Ospreay, where he's victorious this time. Then again, I could also see Ospreay holding this title a long while and dropping it either in the Continental Classic or sometime into 2025.

AEW CONTINENTAL CHAMPIONSHIP

Current AEW Continental Champion: Kazuchika Okada

Prediction for Next Champion: Ricochet

Explanation: Frankly, I think Okada is keeping this title for a long time and won't drop it until at least All In/Out, if not Full Gear or into 2025. I'll just put Ricochet in here because I can imagine Tony Khan will want to put a belt on him. Maybe it's the TNT title, though, which is why I have him down for that, too.

AEW WORLD TRIOS CHAMPIONSHIP

Current AEW World Trios Champions: PAC and Blackpool Combat Club (Claudio Castagnoli & Wheeler Yuta)

Prediction for Next Champion: The Learning Tree

Explanation: My initial reaction is that I like the idea of PAC and BCC joining up, and I'm glad they're champions. We'll see if this lasts in a decent way. It's a bit odd PAC is there holding a title with Claudio and Wheeler, rather than Jon Moxley, but I could see this working and no new trios champions being crowned for a long while. At the very least, right now, I don't have a clear-cut next in line option standing out to me, so I'll just toss The Learning Tree out as a prediction until I can think of something else.

FTW CHAMPIONSHIP

Current AEW FTW Champion: HOOK

Prediction for Next Champions: n/a?

Explanation: I'm hoping this belt is taken off the menu. Hook is the right person to be the final champion and AEW has more than enough titles for people to busy themselves with. I'm down for a hardcore title to exist, but I think the FTW title should be renamed if that were the case.
