Tony Khan has a belt fetish. It's getting expensive and it's getting bad. You don't even have to look at all the new belts coming into the territory to notice, just think about all the forgotten championships that fell by the wayside. Even with all those forgotten belts, AEW still has too many titles. In fact, using an average price of $3,500 per belt, AEW has spent 63,000 on the championship titles that they're either not using, haven't announced or are on the verge of cancelling.
AEW's problem with belts is magnified by the fact that the promotion is still just one brand. They have the roster for a brand split, but Dynamite and Collision do not have exclusive rosters, no exclusive world championships, but despite all that bloat, Tony Khan refuses to stop making new straps. It's belt inflation in the championship economy like we've never seen, and if Belts By Dan gets arthritis you'll know why.
Today, we're going to talk about all the forgotten belts of AEW, and why the participation trophy era has manifested itself into a wrestling company. We're also going to talk about what championships haven't even debuted yet, and why they might incentivize AEW to keep hiring old wrestlers.

Let's start with the TNT Title. Once a staple of AEW as its secondary championship. This was the Cody belt. Cody Rhodes won the TNT Title time and again—three times to be exact—after being banned from being able to compete for a world title. As a result, whenever Cody was TNT champion, he felt like a lineal world champion of sorts. In addition to Cody Rhodes, Miro, Wardlow and the late, great Brodie Lee elevated the TNT Championship. But today, the belt lost its luster. The TNT Championship is a microcosm of WBD. It might as well be called the Cartoon Network Championship. If you want to see the strength of schedule for the TNT Title, look no further than this promo from former TNT champion Daniel Garcia, who buried himself in a face-to-face with TNT champion Adam Cole.
WHO HASN'T BEAT DANIEL GARCIA
Like the TNT Title, both Adam Cole and Daniel Garcia were red-hot but have since come crashing down to earth. The TNT Title came in all types of different colors. Cody donned the red belt before he disappeared. Wardlow wore the black and gold belt then he disappeared. Miro wore the white belt, then he disappeared. Jack Perry won the Blacksmith belt, then HE disappeared. Scorpio Sky wore the gold belt, then he disappeared for 658 days. It's like the damn thing is cursed.
In AEW, TNT stands for "They're Not There."
And God Bless Dustin Rhodes for going over in Texas, it was a great story, but now he’s the third wrestler in AEW to have three or more belts. Not only does that devalue what it means to have a belt in AEW, if you don’t have a belt what the F is wrong with you? You can’t win a participation Trophy in AEW? That’s like being the one guest who didn’t get cookies at the Double Tree.
The All-Atlantic Championship debuted in 2022 before being changed to the International Championship and briefly to the AEW American Title when MJF had it. Now, it's in the middle of an uninspired run by Kenny Omega, whose defended it just 2 times in over 120 days. Fellow meaningless champion Kazuchika Okada faced Omega in a winner-take-all match at All In Texas, creating a new Unified champion which means AEW will finally merge two unnecessary titles into one, right? Wrong. Strap Fiend Tony Khan confirmed that the winner of the Unified Title will carry the Unified Title, The International Title and the Continental Title. So there will be two belt collectors in AEW. There's so many belts in AEW, being a belt collector is becoming the bare minimum.
