AEW Unified Championship
Updated: 12/30/2025, 12:46:30 PM Wikipedia source
The AEW Unified Championship was a men's professional wrestling championship created and promoted by the American promotion All Elite Wrestling (AEW). It is the unification of the AEW Continental Championship and AEW International Championship, and is only active when a wrestler holds both titles, which maintain their individual title histories while the Unified title also has its own unique history. As of December 27, 2025, the Unified Championship is inactive. Matches specifically for the Unified Championship are Winner Takes All matches as the Continental and International titles are also on the line. Additionally, it is contested under the same rules as the Continental title, in which no one is allowed at ringside, outside interference is strictly prohibited, and matches have a 20-minute time limit. The title was unveiled during Dynamite: Summer Blockbuster on June 11, 2025. The inaugural Unified Champion was Kazuchika Okada, who was the reigning Continental Champion. He defeated reigning International Champion Kenny Omega in a Winner Takes All championship unification match at All In: Texas on July 12, 2025. His reign ended when he was forced to relinquish the Unified Championship after he lost the Continental Championship to Jon Moxley in the final of the 2025 Continental Classic at Worlds End on December 27, 2025.
