AEW has made Trios Championship belts and now “it’s just a matter of when they pull the trigger,” according to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter.
Tony Khan talked about plans for the Trios titles at an AEW Revolution media call in March, saying that he wanted to wait until Kenny Omega is back from injury before starting the division.
“It’s something there is a lot of interest in. I’ve seen that,” Khan said. “We have a lot of great trios here. I am very interested in it. I’ll be 100% honest. This is the most-blunt answer I can give. I’m much more receptive to doing it when Kenny Omega is back. When Kenny Omega is back, the trios division is that much stronger. We could do a great tournament now and have a great trios division, but he would make it that much stronger, and I have so much respect for him and he was such a great champion for us and we could have by far the best trios division that anybody could put together with how strong our roster is and how many trios are already together and have experience working together and I would love for Kenny Omega to be a part of it.”
Omega is still dealing with several injuries and as of last month there was no publicly known timetable for his return.
