I feel like AEW and to an extent, the people working there sometimes don't give any comments about things like that i.e. I had no idea Abadon was injured til now, just like how many people didn't know Malakai was working on his gym for a bit which explained why HOB wasn't on TV in a while. Idk why it's more abstract in AEW as opposed to WWE.

I said this during the immediate aftermath of Brawl Out that I kind of like it, to a degree. I like that it gives pro wrestlers some privacy if they want it. That there's no expectation to put all the details of your life out there. They could do more, and start saying, "XYZ is injured at the moment," or "ABC is taking some time to work on a personal project/be with family/take a break," but then you get the pushback asking for details and what specifically it's about, leading into rumour mills. There's some elegance to a hardline, "Yeah, they're not here. They're still signed to us. We won't make further comments," and then leave it up to individual wrestlers how they want to handle it.

If he did a tour of America he could probably get a match, but he's mostly working Japan.

Abadon has improved quite a bit in the ring and they've worked with Athena on the indies already, so that's an option for them. Selfishly I want them to dethrone Jade because Jade loves Abadon in real life and would absolutely play along.

turn it all around

I accidentally saw a photo of (supposedly) Abadon without all of the makeup on and the transformation they make is unreal, if it was actually them in the photo. Kind of funny to see them so soft-spoken with the makeup on looking like a creep.

My guess is that Abaddon's initial gimmick set off Tony's "no supernatural poo poo" sensors and he just lost interest in her after that.
Though Abaddon giving Jade the Anna Jay treatment would make her whole 56 match win streak worth it.
(Even though Jade deserves better this whole run has been 'Jade is high on hubris and is begging for somebody to knock her down a peg' except with no payoff yet)

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.
