The title changes to end the year of 2025 continue this week.
In addition to WWE pulling off a big title change on the final episode of WWE Raw of 2025 on Monday night, where The Usos defeated AJ Styles and Dragon Lee to capture the WWE World Tag-Team Championships, All Elite Wrestling followed suit 48 hours later.
During the annual โNew Yearโs Smashโ special episode of AEW Dynamite on December 31, Willow Nightingale defeated Mercedes Mone to capture the TBS Championship.
The finish came when she powered through and connected with the Babe With the Powerbomb, finally putting Monรฉ away to secure the championship victory.
This marks Nightingaleโs second reign as AEW TBS Champion. Her first run lasted from April 21, 2024, to May 26, 2024, before Monรฉ took the title from her. In addition to regaining the TBS Championship, Nightingale is currently one-half of the AEW Womenโs Tag Team Champions alongside Harley Cameron.
History was made in the process.
With the win, Nightingale became the first woman in AEW history to hold two championships simultaneously.
For Monรฉ, the loss continues a sudden reversal of fortunes. After an extended run of championship success, December 2025 saw her drop the ROH Womenโs World Television Championship, the RevPro Undisputed British Womenโs Championship, and now the AEW TBS Championship in rapid succession.
