Former WWE Superstar Alex Riley is returning to the ring for the first time since 2016.

Riley was under contract to WWE from 2007-2016, with many touting him as a future star during his time with The Miz, but things didn't work out and he was released and appeared to be done with pro wrestling.

He will make his return to the ring at Generation Championship Wrestling as Kevin Riley on March 31 and April 1.

Below is the Generation Championship Wrestling announcement:

Kevin Riley – Steel Horse (fka Alex Riley) is coming to Generation Championship Wrestling – GCW.

The Steel Horse is no stranger to Wrestling Fans… he popped on the scene in the 2nd season of NXT (the competition) , spent time protecting half of the “It” Couple, grabbed briefcases and brass rings…. and then made Netflix & The Super popular TV Show “Glow” his …. home.

But competition always calls….
And real athletes ALWAYS answer…
Now, after much reflection … he is ready to dominate again, and make his return to Professional Wrestling.
