All Elite Wrestling could introduce a Women’s Tag Team Championship, with AEW President Tony Khan interested in the idea.
AEW certainly have the depth for such titles, having built a strong division after receiving criticism in the past over the perceived lack of importance for its women’s roster. Speaking on the pre-Double or Nothing media call, Khan spoke of a potential women’s tag division alongside a refocused men’s tag division:
"AEW is having a great 2025, and I’m trying to build us to the strongest point we’ve been. We’re taking great steps. That is something I’d like to do and is a goal for me. You can see there is a number of great tandems and alliances. There are some great tag matches in the women’s division," said Khan.
"Right now, I’m also focused on building back the men’s tag division. We’ve had a lot of injuries there, and now we’re trying to get people healthy and get the best teams working together. As I’m rebuilding the men’s tag division, that is something I’m interested in doing in the future.
"There are a lot of great teams in the women’s division and a lot of great partnerships and rivalries that would lend themselves to those matches. As I’m building back the tag division to get it to its strongest point, which I think is moving in a good direction, and as we get people healthy, and when you look at some of the great tag matches, the division is getting better. We have great talent, and now it’s about getting people healthy.
"In 2025, I’ve been trying to put on the very best shows we possibly can. Whether it’s having an injury to Buddy [Mathews] or Kevin Knight, who was in a team with Speedball Bailey - not an injury, but we lost him to the Super Juniors, he’ll be back. As we’re building the best shows on TV week in and week out, that’s something I want to get to: the best tag team wrestling in the world. We have the best wrestlers, and I am interested in (AEW Women’s Tag Team Titles). I’m also trying to build the tag division I have right now. It is something I’m interested in doing, and it is realistic to see at some point."
Members of the AEW women’s division have been pushing for tag titles for several years, although reports in 2024 suggested they were not in the pipeline it remains to be seen if 2025 could be the year they’re finally introduced.
AEW currently have two singles championship belts for their women’s division to fight over, with Toni Storm and Mercedes Moné currently in possession of the AEW Women’s World Championship and TBS Championship respectively. Sister promotion Ring of Honor also has three women’s singles titles - the ROH Women’s World Championship, ROH Women’s Television Championship, and ROH Women's Pure Championship.
