In speaking to several sources over the weekend, I can confirm that Shark Fights Heavyweight Champion Bobby Lashley is in talks with several officials once again in the WWE in regards to a potential return to the company later this year. The former ECW Champion previously had contact with the company prior to the WWE WrestleMania 28 pay-per-view event, however those talks eventually cooled.

The expectation is that Lashley if he does decide on a return to the company, he will not show up on television until July at the earliest and will more than likely end up working the WWE Summerslam pay-per-view, as well as a match at the WWE WrestleMania 29 pay-per-view.

With the recent return of Brock Lesnar to WWE television and the recent additions to the roster from the company’s developmental territory Florida Championship Wrestling, with more set to debut in the coming weeks, the addition of Lashley to either the RAW or SmackDown roster would certainly add a much needed boost for the WWE.
