[WATCH] Former WWE champion competes in first match in 215 days; Bret Hart in attendance

A former WWE champion who was released back in September finally returned to the ring after 215 days. It was a special event with WWE Hall of Famer Bret "The Hitman" Hart in attendance.

Madcap Moss, now known as Mike Rallis, was one of many superstars released after the launch of TKO Group Holdings, Inc. The former 24/7 Champion and Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal winner did not wrestle anywhere else even after his 90-day no-compete clause expired.

Moss and his wife, Tenille Dashwood, formerly known as Emma, started a YouTube channel about their travels around the world. They also confirmed that they were not done with wrestling and will return soon.

For Moss, it happened over the weekend on April 14 in Victoria, Australia under the Oceania Pro Wrestling banner. He faced off against fellow WWE alum Chris Masters in a match for the Stu Hart Heritage Championship, with Bret Hart in attendance.

In the video shared by Masters on Instagram, the two had a hard-hitting encounter down under. Moss even applied the Sharpshooter at one point during the match. The Masterpiece won after using his famous Master Lock submission.
