Abadon’s Shocking AEW Return Came Together At The Last Minute

Hikaru Shida defended her AEW Women’s World Title against Abadon on AEW Collision this week. That match was heavy with weapons and had a Halloween theme, but Abadon’s return to AEW will stretch well past Halloween.

Abadon’s return to face Hikaru Shida in an AEW World Title match coincided with Halloween, but there’s more to her absence than just the connection with the spooky season.

Sean Sapp noted behind Fightful’s paywall that Abadon is “back in the fold” with AEW. She was sidelined with an injury, and she had just received clearance prior to her match on Wednesday.

We’re told Abadon had been sidelined with an injury and just got cleared for an AEW return this past Wednesday ahead of AEW Dynamite. Abandon had last competed for AEW back in June, and returned to the ring after a four-month absence at REVOLVER’s show the week prior. However, they still needed to gain AEW clearance

It was also noted in the report that, “We can’t speak as to why Abadon was off television for nearly a year.” Hopefully, Abadon’s return to television means that fans have a lot more to expect from her.

Abadon’s return to the fold in AEW was quite a surprise. It appears that her comeback is not just because Halloween is just around the corner. Keep checking back with us here at Ringside News for more.
