There’s no better time for Women’s Tag Team Titles, says Tony Khan.
On the September 24 edition of Dynamite, Tony Khan announced that All Elite Wrestling will soon crown its first Women’s Tag Team Champions. While fans have been calling for the titles since AEW’s debut six years ago on TNT, Khan explained why now is the right moment to introduce them.
Speaking to Rob Wolkenbrod of Forbes, Tony Khan praised the growth of AEW’s women’s division, calling the roster stronger than ever.
“I’m very excited about the AEW Women’s World Tag Team Championship coming to AEW this year. Throughout 2025, the women’s division has been delivering more great matches and rivalries than ever before, and so many top stars have continued to emerge. We’ve had amazing signings, like Mercedes Moné, who came in as a free agent and is now the TBS Champion, and if you look back a few years, Toni Storm joined AEW and went on to become one of our greatest champions. Along the way, we’ve added so many talented faces. Kris Statlander, who’s been here from the early years, has become a top star in her own right. More recently, we’ve also seen the rise of some very interesting and very talented women’s tag teams. With the roster at its strongest, the highest quality it’s ever been, I think now is the perfect time to introduce the AEW Women’s World Tag Team Championships. Women’s wrestling in AEW is the best it’s ever been, and these titles will make it even stronger.”
