Jon Moxley is the new AEW World Champion

#3 The Young Bucks

The Bucks are former ROH and IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Tag Champions

Since the inception of All Elite Wrestling, The Young Bucks are yet to taste championship victory under the AEW banner. Yes, the duo of Matt and Nick Jackson sure did win the AAA Tag Team Championships but that was in a different promotion.

However, that hasn't always been the case for Matt and Nick, as The Jackson Brothers are usually known for holding one or the other championship belt in the business. Prior to signing with AEW, The Bucks dominated the scene on the Independent Circuit and also worked for both Ring of Honor and New Japan Pro Wrestling.

Having started out as a Jr. Heavyweight Tag Team, The Bucks established themselves as one of the most dominant tag teams in New Japan's Jr. Heavyweight Tag Division and being a 7-time IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Tag Team Champions is no joke.

During one of their reigns as IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Tag Team Champions, The Young Bucks also held the ROH World Tag Team Championships and also declared themselves as the first and only Superkick Party Tag Team Champions (Making them a Triple Champion in the process).
