The payload was missing require 'msf/core/handler/reverse_tcp', latest update pulled with msfupdate broke the startup of the framework, where you got this kind of an error:

PR7007 centralized JCL job card for any JCL cmd payload. This PR simply
uses that new format for existing JCL cmd payloads. No functionality
for these payloads was changed, added or deleted.
Added a JCL-based reverse shell. Uses the same source code as the
shellcode version does. Source code is in
external/source/shellcode/mainframe/shell_reverse_tcp.s
