The AAA World Trios Championship ("Campeonato Mundial de Tercias AAA" in Spanish) is a professional wrestling championship promoted by the Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide (AAA) promotion in Mexico. It is contested for by teams of three wrestlers (often called "six-man tag teams" in the United States). The creation of the title was first announced in May 2011, when AAA started a tournament, set to end at Triplemanía XIX, to determine the first champions.[1] The physical belts were designed and crafted by All Star Championship Belts.[2]

The championship is generally contested in professional wrestling matches, in which participants execute scripted finishes rather than contend in direct competition. Los Vipers (Abismo Negro Jr., Psicosis, and Toxin) are the current champions in their first reign as a team, after defeating Nueva Generación Dinamita ("New Generation Dynamite"; El Cuatrero, Forastero, and Sansón) on July 21, 2023. Los Apaches and Los Mercenarios were the two teams, and so far, intergender team to win the championship. Overall, there have been eighteen reigns shared among fifteen teams and thirty-nine different wrestlers.
