Steve Lombardi aka The Brooklyn Brawler made his return the ring Saturday night following a quiet exit from WWE last month — and we’ve got exclusive footage of the match.

The whole thing went down in Brooklyn, of course … where the 55 year-old wrestled for Legendary Action Wrestling against Eric Jayden in the show’s opener.

In case you missed it, Lombardi was let go back in May when WWE parted ways with a whole slew of talent.  For some reason, Brawler’s release was never announced like the others.

According to the event promoter, the full match will soon be made available on their YouTube channel.
