The AEW International Championship is a professional wrestling championship created and promoted by the American promotion All Elite Wrestling (AEW). It is a secondary championship for male wrestlers, and unlike AEW's other titles, which are almost exclusively defended on AEW programming, the International Championship can also be defended in other promotions globally. The current champion is Will Ospreay, who is in his record-tying second reign. He won the title by defeating MJF at All In on August 25, 2024.
Established as the AEW All-Atlantic Championship on June 8, 2022, the title was created to represent AEW's fans from around the world with no particular focus on the Atlantic Ocean or countries surrounding it. The inaugural champion was Pac. Since its establishment, the title has been defended in the Revolution Pro Wrestling, Over the Top Wrestling, New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW), and Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre promotions, although most of its defenses have occurred in AEW, which has also included defenses against wrestlers from NJPW. On March 15, 2023, the title was rebranded as the AEW International Championship. During MJF's reign from July to August 2024, he unofficially rebranded the title as the AEW American Championship.
