Former ECW Champion Bobby Lashley recently put feelers out to people in WWE that he is interested in returning to the company. There is said to be at least some interest in bringing Lashley back but he put word out when WrestleMania season was beginning and a lot of thought wasn’t put into his return. A source says Lashley popping up before next year is a possibility.

Lashley was awful. He had the aggression of a puppy, the personality of a carpet, and was the poster-boy for everything that was wrong with WWE between 2005-2008. Bodybuilders with no talent being given massive pushes ahead of genuine talent. The push he had was one of the biggest I've ever seen - if WWE got behind someone like Dolph Ziggler or Daniel Bryan, they'd have one of the biggest stars of all time on theor books. Instead, Lashley quits, and now WWE has this stupid idea to test people's loyalties before pushing them. By which time, they've damaged them, beyond repair and all they can think to do is give them the MITB breifcase.
In short: Lashley has fucked up any name credibility he may have had in TNA. He's not done anything in MMA, and is now crawling back to WWE to try and earn some money before he has to finally give up and take a job flipping burgers.
Even then, his burgers would still suck.

When he was previously in WWE I looked at him as a cut-price Brock Lesnar (they even had practially the same ring entrance) so it might be amusing to bring him back to see him smacked around by the real Brock Lesnar.
Truthfully, I barely remember what he did in WWE, other than almost killing himself everytime he jumped out of the ring and having one of the worst PPV matches I've ever seen against Test at the Royal Rumble.
If they bring him back I can't see it being at a high level. The fact that the most important title he's won is the ECW title says it all.

yeah it says it all that he's only held the ECW title... just that he'd just been drafted to raw, was put in a wwe title match with cena almost straight away and apparantly was supposed to be the one to take the belt of cena before he left. Instead Orton took the belt off him.
