I wasn’t super into her BUT Taz can’t take anything seriously enough to sell such a wrestler. Idk, I remember she put over Daffney back in TNA, though Im curious how badly wouldve JR crapped on Abadon... If he can treat the Undertaker's hokey schtick like it's serious, I doubt he would have intentionally crapped on Abadon. Tazz has a habit of making fun of this stuff and doing performers no favours during his commentary.

It was too silly for me. Slow and silly. Couldn't even get myself to watch the whole match and skipped the last part. Sorry, but this is not 1990 anymore and she wouldn't do AEW's women's division any good with this gimmick.

Abadon's AEW DARK match has over 100,000 views on its stand alone video, and over 19K on the spanish dub
That's basically some of the highest views AEW has ever done on the segmented DARK Matches. They REALLY have to be looking at her again right?

Kenny tweeted out praise for her, so yeah, they probably are looking at her to be brought in again. I forget how many matches Big Swole got before she was given a contract, probably like 2-3, so I'd expect that we'll see her in again, and if that goes well, maybe contract. Then again, who knows.

THIS is what AEW needs in their women's division.
And this is right up my alley. I hope they sign her. We need a supernatural evil character and Impact has Su Yung and Rosemary on lock.
Plus Abadon's name and look are fantastic, the crowd are going to fall in love with her. If they sign her she'll be a huge star.
Edit: I finally watched the whole match, not just the entrance, and yeah Taz did kinda shit all over her. Could've done without the comments about her weight or catering. Plus they just kept laughing, and essentially felt like they were burying her gimmick. I hope someone talks to them about that. Even JR would've "sold" her better.

160,000 views in a week for an 8 minute DARK Match
I think AEW's gonna be bringing Abadon back, might be a few weeks due to things out of their control but I don't think they can ignore she's doing something.

It's nearing 250,000 views in just about two weeks.
Idk if they can fly her out from Denver in this current time due to everything going on but I'll be damned if she doesn't get another look down the line.

Should be worth noting that Cody just and I mean just like this morning started following Abadon on Twitter.
I have to feel like that's a good sign for her.
Video's over 360,000 views now by the way, 100,000 views average a week since it was posted is very impressive.

Commentary did her no favours at all. Which is inherently stupid, because by treating her like a joke, you make it seem like Shida (who is one of the bigger projects that AEW is working on) let a joke get that much offense in on her. I think Arn Anderson has the best way of putting it, which is something like: "If you treat someone like they're a nobody, then you either beat a nobody, or you let a nobody beat you"

She's also interacted a lot with Nyla and some of the others, too, so she's probably on their radar.

Just thought I'd bump this and say the match is almost at 450,000 viewers now.
That consistent viewership really says volumes, people haven't stopped watching her match since she showed up.

MY WISH FULFILLED.
Absolutely the right move, she's still relatively young as far as I know as well, plenty of room to grow, amazing look, she was a no brainer to scoop up. Perfect incluson to the women's division.

I just wanna point out how shocked I was here. I was literally saying "I hope it's Abadon" because Jay came out first and there was no jobber in ring for her
Then the music and tron hit and I damn near lost it, lol.
