One of the new additions to the division is Abadon. Making her debut on the June 17 episode of AEW Dynamite by defeating Anna Jay, Abadon continues to rack up victories on AEW Dark, and in return, she’s gained a huge supporter in Chris Jericho.

Speaking on his most recent Saturday Night Special Q&A session, Jericho explained why he is such a big fan of Abadon and her gimmick.

“Abadon is this really creepy gimmick and she signed with us and she's going to be a huge, huge force in women's division because this looks like some kind of zombie from Evil Dead combined with Train to Busan, or something like that. So, it's really cool stuff.”

He continued, “So if you have not seen Abadon on AEW Dark, go look for her because she's got a great look and it's really believable. It's really creepy and it's actually really scary and I'm a big fan of hers.”
