There has been speculation about Tony Khan's major announcement this Wednesday on AEW Dynamite. A report has come in, and there seems to be reason to believe that it could be the introduction of a new championship belt.

Last night at All Out, some matches were revealed for the Dynamite after the pay-per-view. It was then suddenly announced that TK would have an important announcement to make during the show. It has been a while since something of the sort has happened, so rumors and speculation about this have been going around.

On a recent edition of the Wrestling Observer Radio, Bryan Alvarez and Dave Meltzer discussed this and gave their takes based on what they've been hearing. Both wrestling journalists agreed that this looked to be the introduction of the new AEW Women's Tag Team titles, as they now had a stacked roster for this.

“Very much could be. Tony made Women’s Tag Team Team Title belts a long time ago, and he was just waiting for enough women to be healthy. [Alvarez: he’s got plenty of women now] He’s got a lot of women that are healthy, yeah. The only one… Athena’s out now, but that’s of the major ones. I think that… is she the only one? Is [Thunder] Rosa back?,” Dave Meltzer said. [H/T ITRWrestling]

AEW announces that Tony Khan has an important announcement this upcoming Wednesday.

A few months ago, it was reported that Tony Khan had these titles made almost a year ago and has yet to put them to use.


Tony Khan reveals reason he has yet to introduce the titles

Back in July, Tony Khan was asked why he has yet to bring in the women's tag team titles despite having them for a year.

In an interview with WGN Radio, he revealed that he was looking for an opportune moment as he wanted everyone in the division to be healthy. At the time, several women were out of action after All In, which led to plans for the titles being pushed back again.

"A quarter of the people in the match got knocked out of the match and out of action indefinitely. So we had one match where I lost 25% of the roster in one match. — I have the belts. I’ve made the belts. They exist, but I will put them into play when we are able to put the very best full roster forward to have great action with competition for all the championships," he said.

Now, most of the women on the roster are healthy, so Tony Khan may have enough stars to work with. Fans should stay tuned for his announcement on Wednesday as there is still a real chance this could be completely different from what is speculated.

Growing up, Enzo admired former world champions like AJ Styles, Will Ospreay, Bryan Danielson, Triple H, and Randy Orton for their finishing moves. As an adult, he started to appreciate their character work, as they juggled between heel and babyface gimmicks.

If allowed to produce one final storyline involving his idols, he would have Orton lock horns with John Cena, would be their one last big feud as both of them seem to be approaching the tail end of their careers.
