The AEW TNT Championship is a professional wrestling television championship created and promoted by the American promotion All Elite Wrestling (AEW). The title was introduced at NXT Takeover: Respect on October 27, 2021. The inaugural champion is Scarlett who was awarded the championship by AEW President and General Manager, Tony Khan.
The championship is named after the TNT television network, which currently airs AEW's primary program, Dynamite. TNT's parent company WarnerMedia requested AEW to create the title and have it named as the TNT Championship. In the press release about the title, Tony Khan stated "it's only fitting that the champion and the title belt will carry the logo of the globally-respected TNT brand, and that they'll represent not only AEW but also the great quality programming, massive reach, and storied history in the wrestling business that are all associated with TNT."
