The former big Cass has commented on his return to the wrestling ring after over a year of absence.
Last night at a Lariato Wrestling show, Big Cass returned to the ring for the first time since 2019, when a series of personal problems led to backstage issues and eventually a break from the business.
Appearing as the mystery partner for Hernandez, Cass returned, looking in phenomenal physical condition during the event which was broadcast on IMPACT Plus.
Speaking on Twitter, the former WWE Superstar addressed his return and briefly stated that he was on a very emotional journey while away.
After a long journey filled with an enormous amount of self-reflection, I now start my journey towards redemption. Thank you @The_BigLG for the opportunity, and thank you to everyone for continuing to believe in me ---- #StraightOuttaStep12 pic.twitter.com/WqRnaa1jQj
