Anyone wonder why guys like Bobby Lashley, Mr. Kennedy and MVP never have gotten a second run in the WWE? These 3 I'd say in 06-08 were positioned to be the next main event guys and for various reasons did not work out. I just find it weird how we have never really seen any rumours of WWE trying to get them back or anything.

The only one I'd like to see back is Kennedy but he had heat backstage from what I remember. Along with Carlito and Chris Masters the three you mentioned made up a lot of TV time for a good few years but never did anything really noteworthy.

I thought they were in talks with MVP a year or so ago but just didn’t reach a deal. Kennedy seems to have heat with guys like Cena and Orton so that could be a reason there. TNA probably provided Lashley with flexibility to do other things so he probably hung out there.

I could see Lasley or MVP maybe coming back. I think Kennedy has heat with Cena, Orton, and HHH, so that pretty much keeps a return from ever happening.

With Lashley, he's been doing MMA along with pro wrestling, so TNA's schedule and lack of touring allows him the flexibility for both.
Kennedy/Anderson had really fizzled out during his last years in TNA, and I believe ended up getting fired over working tapings drunk or high and refusing a drug test. So, yeah.
Not sure what the story is with MVP. I know he was supposed to be involved with Lucha Underground, but got axed because he apparently broke an NDA by talking about it on his podcast or something. Kinda surprised he hasn't turned up back in NJPW or TNA.

That whole Ruthless Aggression to PG Era group is a lost generation. Cena Orton and Batista were focused on so much that the rest of them just vanished. Renee Dupree, Conway, Shelton, Carlito, Rhodes and DiBiase Morrison, lashley, ect. I know they did stuff elsewhere but only The Miz stayed WWE relevant perhaps Umaga would have as well. And history is repeating itself currently with Reigns. In the next five years they will have Reigns and apparently Jason Jordon as Cena and Orton and maybe a flash in the pan to play Batista.

Lashley seems so improved these days compared to his WWE days. I'd like to see him back sometime.
I would mark hard for MVP and Carlito to return as well.

I wasn’t a fan of any of there’s, but mvp could have been better if the creative period was stronger for him.

I agree with you, I wish Lashley would come back for one more run too! I keep hoping Carlito will come back and be put in a team with Primo and Epico.

TBH the entire RA era had so many guys that were destined to be the next big thing and then they just fell flat.
Orton, Cena, Batista and Mysterio seemed to be the only new guys that got focused on.

Lashley will most likely come back to face Lesnar, well I mean hopefully WWE brings him back.

Kennedy almost re-injured Orton so he sealed his fate all thanks to one bad move.

I just want Chris Masters back. Dude was soooooo... young when he started. He is awesome. He shouldn't have gotten the tat though.

What hurt Lashley was that he was to green and couldn't talk. If he would have stayed in OVW for a few years he would have been much better.

Don’t think anyone would fit in now in the current WWE except Lashley.. Carlito maybe with the Colons but other than that I don’t think anyone would fit!
