Hey, 11volt here.

I've seen the Upwards After-Burner Kick mentioned a few times on here. The problem is, I have no idea what it looks like or how to execute it. All I know of the ABK is the aerial variation and the Dive Kick (dABK). What exactly does the uABK do?

If I'm not wrong, uABK is literally just the standard After Burner Kick. It's only referred to as such because just saying 'ABK' could cause confusion about which version you mean to use, and the standard version has a slightly upwards angle to it.

There could be a specific tech to turn a regular ABK into a uABK, but if that's the case I've not heard of it, even back when I was really into playing Bayonetta. It just seems way more likely that the regular air Side-B is what they're referring to since side-B as Bayo, as far as I know, only has 3 variants: Heel Slide (Grounded) and the two After Burner Kick (Air) angles.

It's regular ABK

Don't know why people would even bother using uABK as a term in the first place lol
