Robot History
Season 4.0
Abaddon's first match in Season 4.0 was up against the full body spinner of Tortoise in the final preliminary round. Tortoise hit Abaddon, but then got pushed into the wall and held by Abaddon so it couldn't spin up. Eventually Tortoise got away, and spun up. Once again, Abaddon stopped Tortoise without getting damaged. This was because Abaddon's pronged weapon was high enough to hit Tortoise above its teeth and stopped it from spinning. Abaddon effectively pushed Tortoise around and kept its speed down all match, not letting Tortoise hit Abaddon anywhere in the back or sides more than once or twice. In the end, Abaddon won on a 40-5 judge's decision and advanced to the TV rounds, where it faced High Impact.
Rammstein pushes Abaddon.
Abaddon won the match by KO at 2:38 and advanced to the round of 32, where it faced Rammstein. In the match, Abaddon was pierced several times by Rammstein's spike and both robots pushed each other. The match lasted the duration and the judges awarded the win to Rammstein on a 27-18 decision. This meant that Abaddon was eliminated from the tournament.
As of 2015, it is unknown if Abaddon participated the superheavyweight consolation rumble at the end of the tournament.
Season 5.0
Minion gets underneath Abaddon.
Due to Abaddon's performance from Season 4.0, Abaddon became seeded and was able to skip to the round of 32, having an unlucky draw against the former superheavyweight champion Minion. Abaddon fought well, but Minion was the clear aggressor, getting under Abaddon with its wedge. Minion won on a 26-19 judge's decision and Abaddon was eliminated from the tournament again.
Abaddon couldn't compete in the superheavyweight consolation rumble because the rest of the rumbles were canceled due to an accident with Nightmare during the heavyweight consolation rumble.
