"Tomorrow is my last day" - 33-year-old star officially finished with AEW; becomes a free agent
An AEW fan-favorite who has been signed with the promotion for many years is officially set to become a free agent. The star in question, Abadon, is gearing up to ply their trade elsewhere.
The Living Dead Girl made their All Elite Wrestling debut against Hikaru Shida back in March 2020, and signed a contract with the Jacksonville-based company a few months later in June. They battled top names like Shida and Britt Baker, impressing viewers with their uncanny persona as well as their in-ring mannerisms and proficiency. For most of their run, however, the Colorado-native competed on AEW's former YouTube show Dark, with only a handful of appearances on Dynamite, Rampage, and Collision to their name.
Late last month, Abadon took to social media to announce that their All Elite Wrestling contract would expire in June and that the company would not renew it. A few hours ago on X/Twitter, the 33-year-old revealed that the following day would be their last with AEW, after which they will officially become a free agent. They also sought bookings, presumably to wrestle on the indies and elsewhere.
"Tomorrow is my last day. It's bitter sweet. Im excited to wrestle. Everyone, everywhere. Let's get spooky. You can also email britestarpromo@yahoo.com," wrote Abadon.

Although Abadon has not wrestled in an All Elite ring since the end of 2023, she made several appearances on ROH throughout the last year and even during a taping this past February.
Konnan on AEW and Tony Khan's utilization of Abadon
Abadon's last AEW match pitted them against Julia Hart in a TBS Championship bout at Worlds End 2023, a match which they lost. The Zombae was not featured on television in 2024, despite being under contract.
Addressing their departure from All Elite Wrestling on a recent episode of the Keepin' It 100 OFFICIAL podcast, Konnan discussed what he perceived to be the company's failure at properly getting the star over with fans.
"Number one, the girl never really got over. They pushed her hard at the beginning, okay, and, bro, that's what happens there, and I say it all the time; some people say, 'Oh, I'm getting paid!' Yeah, but your stock is also going down," he said. [2:23-2:36]
Abadon has already hit the independent circuit and defeated former All Elite name Sonny Kiss at GCW Effy's Big Gay Brunch last April.
