Well, really all you need is a Culexus, as Abbadon's powers are purely manifested from the Warp as is the power of his blade. So really, you just need to get a Culexus assassin close enough, probably with support from an execution team, and they could probably do the job. Issue is getting close enough to a dude who employs god knows how many bodyguards who are no slouches and then defeat one of the most brutal combatants in 40k. Personally, I would put my money on either a fellow Champion of the Dark Gods, the Swarmlord, or a Necron Phaeron. Phaeron has a Tessaract Labyrinth, which could just make Ol' Abby go bye bye for eternity. The Swarmlord is a creature that embodies the might of the entire Tryanid race, and he's got some pretty scary psychic powers via the immense power of the Hive Mind, he could probably beat down Abaddon and leave his remains for the Rippers. As for fellow Champion of Chaos well, it's a big galaxy, and there is always someone bigger, like Be'lakor, Shon'tu, and even Honshu or Huron. Hell it woulden't surprise me if Chaos up and granted some other powerful Chaos Lord the powers of Chaos Acendant just to dick with Abbadon for shits and giggles as is their M.O. Frankly, no loyalist save the Emperor himself and perhaps a ressurected Maldacor could really stand up to Abbadon, though I hold out some hope that a Living Saint of Sisters of Battle fame could do the job if imbued with enough of the Emperor's holy psyker mojo.
