The inaugural AEW Trios Championship Tournament bracket was revealed during this week’s episode of AEW Dynamite. The plans for crowning the new champions, along with the plans for the tournament, were announced a couple of weeks ago, during the July 27 edition of Dynamite. But it wasn’t until last night that the participants of the tournament alongside the kick-off match were disclosed.
During last night’s Quake By The Lake edition of AEW Dynamite from Minneapolis Minnesota, it was declared that the upcoming trios tournament will crown the first-ever AEW Trios Championship holders. Overall, eight existing and newly setup factions will be a part of the tourney.
