Bobby Lashley's last match in WWE was on July 30, 2007, an episode of Raw in a match against Mr Kennedy. WWE announced that Lashley was released from his WWE contract on February 4, 2008. Lashley then moved on to TNA wrestling where he achieved immense success, capturing the World Heavyweight Championship four times.

He also competes in Bellator MMA, where he has been undefeated in five heavyweight bouts. There have been rumours of Lashley leaving Impact Wrestling before his contract expires which has caused speculation of a possible move to the WWE.

It has been a decade since Lashley last appeared in a WWE ring. His physical prowess and fighting skills can only be compared to that of Brock Lesnar. He is a big star who can elicit the kind of reaction AJ Styles received when he made is debut at the 2016 Royal Rumble match. Lashley has made a name for himself outside the WWE and everyone would welcome him wholeheartedly should he return.

A return as a surprise entrant in the Royal Rumble would just be the best way to introduce Bobby Lashley back to the WWE universe. The fans would go wild in giving him the reception he deserves if he makes his big return this Sunday.
