Trios, but call it the 6 man tag titles like old school WCW.

I think the AEW Elevation Championship would be a fun belt to have on AEW Dark/Dark Elevation.
Instead of a Trios title, I'd instead do an AEW Trios Tag Tournament where the winners get a chance to then vie for the World and Tag Team Titles. For instance:
PAC and Fenix get tag title shot, Penta gets world title match, Mox and Young Bucks - Mox gets world title match, Young Bucks get tag title match.
Then you could have somebody like Archer recruit Butcher and Blade to team with him, they get the benefit of riding along with a scary dude like Archer to help them get a tag title shot, and he gets backup and a world title match.
Could be a fun way to put some strange bedfellows together, too.

trios would make sense given all the faction warfare in AEW that they can field the numbers easily.
also would like to see a mixed tag championship mostly because i can't think of any promotion that has one. gives the women something else to do and sneaking them into more airtime (cause they wouldn't be "taking time" away from the men) and adds reasons for all these factions to have female members, other than the dark order with anna (+ sorta tay) and possibly Best Friends with statlander now, oh almost forgot Triple B/hardy brand none of the main factions have women among them.
Imagine a MJF/Britt team- daley's place would have to expand to contain those egos as mixed tag champs.
i can see the reasons why this probably won't happen but it's always been something i'd like to see tried.

If we absolutely have to introduce a new belt, it should be a Cruiserweight title, which is specific enough to create a core of wrestlers who would contend for it, and hopefully make it worth something. The only issue you have with a cruiserweight belt is where do you set the weight limit for cruiserweight when most of the roster are "traditional" cruiserweights (less than 220lbs).

An intergender trios/tag title could be interesting. I'd prefer trios as it would separate it from the normal tag title, and have more opportunity for unique pairings. Give me a Team Taz trio of Leyla Hirsch/Hobbs/Starks vs Dark Order Tay/Jay/Silver. Would add another interesting element to the already faction focused AEW booking.
Obviously the biggest obstacle to any intergender matches is Khan/TNT. I don't see it happening anytime soon, more likely a belt that already in play becomes intergender before a new one would be introduced.

None, it just waters down the prestige the existing titles hold which still actually mean something. They're typically introduced when those in charge of creative are struggling to come up with personal issues or to placate a talent/talents, hopefully this is avoided for some time yet.
I wouldn't mind an annual/one off trios tournament though with winners getting title shots against the World and Tag Champs.

I chose Trios and Women's Tag. There's so many damn factions and trios that you almost kinda need them as an excuse to keep having all these six man tags. And the Women's Tag Tournament could have had so many storylines spin out of it as I pointed out in another thread, but they haven't done jack shit with the winners except have them beat jobbers on Dark sometimes. Also much like the Trios titles, it gives a reason for all the constant women's tag matches and alliances.

AEW has done a good job of keeping all of its titles meaningful so far - so count me in the “no more” camp.

They have a ton of faction based wars already, if they fought for Trios belts it's make sense, since having Trios Titles could signify you are better than the other groups.

Trios. It'll give both their tag teams and solo wrestlers something to do. They have a division ready and waiting to go, and their trios matches are generally always bangers.

I'd rather see a Trios tournament instead of titles.

Trios titles, but contested under lucha tag rules.

I guess it is possible - and if they do go for a trios division/title I hope it works - but my feeling on it is too many belts dilutes their meaning and they have enough.

TBH that horse has left the barn when Cody decided to make his own singles championship with blackjack and hookers because he booked himself out of the world title. At least a trios would be an entirely different division with a different dynamic and stakes rather than just a lesser belt for those who can't hack it in the main event.

At least a trios would be an entirely different division with a different dynamic and stakes rather than just a lesser belt for those who can't hack it in the main event. The TNT Title has been built up as if you win it you are the face of the TNT Brand and the ace of the company if you hold it. Nowhere has it been presented as a vanity belt or some midcard trash. It's been presented as a title everyone wants, which has literally lead to some of the biggest signings of AEW to date like Kingston and Starks just for competing for it. The title is also more Brodie Lee's legacy than Cody's at this point. Cody won the belt yeah, but nowhere has it ever been presented that it's lesser and given to people who "Cant hack it" in the main event and that's ridiculous. AEW's roster is HUGE, it needed another belt, and the TNT's been a great second singles title.

Trios; It's a simple and easy way to establish which group is the most dominant and with a free bird rule it gives you endless possibilities
