AEW Star Accuses Former WWE Star Of Making Sexist Comment

AEW star Abadon has taken to social media to speak about the abuse she has suffered as a woman in professional wrestling, including some of the things she has been allegedly told by trainers and bookers.

Taking to Twitter over the weekend, Abadon claimed that she’d been told to become “more attractive” by a promoter so that he could book her for a show. Abadon also stated that she was also told to stop using her gimmick as she wasn’t The Undertaker:

“Can you be more attractive so we can book you?” “You are too fat to be doing flips.” “You are not The Undertaker, so stop.” I continue to take their souls and rip their flesh from bone.

In a follow-up Twitter post, the AEW star accused someone of telling her and other female wrestlers of saying they would “work better” if they had a “dildo on a pole match”. She stated that she was told this at a seminar in front of her peers:

My personal favorite, “If this was a dildo on a pole match you guys would actually work better.” At a seminar in front of a bunch of peers right after an on the fly tag match.

Abadon then subsequently claimed in the comments of the aforementioned post that the “legend” who said this to her and three other female wrestlers was former WWE star Al Snow:

That “legend” was Al Snow who said this to myself and 3 other women in front of EVERYONE at the seminar.

It is important to stress that, at this time, Al Snow has yet to comment on this accusation. For the latest on this story, make sure you stay tuned to WrestleTalk.com.
