Ranking Every AEW Championship Reign Of 2023

10. Samoa Joe - AEW TNT Championship

Joe has actually had two reigns with TNT title this year, but considering the first ended on January 4th, it's probably fair to ignore that one.

Altogether, at this point it's pretty clear, that the TNT title has become probably the most meaningless of AEW's championships. Even its purpose became something up-for-debate throughout this year.

For a while, it was largely the "big scary dude" title, and perhaps no one exemplified this better than Joe. Not just a master of his craft at this point, but a wizard on the mic - he at least made the title seem less pointless just by resting it on his esteemed shoulder. Even more so alongside the ROH TV title, which altogether made him feel like a bigger deal.

Still, a combined 36 days with the championship means he won't be ranking any higher.
