#3 Lashley as a surprise 'Money in the Bank' or 'Elimination Chamber' entrant

The Money in the Bank ladder match is perhaps the most brutal, career-threatening and life-risking match in WWE. But with such enormous risks, comes great rewards - a guaranteed World Championship match. Bobby Lashley has competed previously in the Money in the Bank match at WrestleMania 22, but could not register a victory.

If the creative team of WWE decides to bring Lashley in this match and he goes on to win the match, it could be the highest rated pay-per-view in television history. Lashley is a destructive force, and with a ladder, in his hand, he could wreak havoc. Fans would love to see such a comeback for him.

Similar to the Money in the Bank, another career-altering match is the Elimination Chamber match. Generally, the participants in this match are decided beforehand through a series of matches. However, Bobby Lashley has a history of breaking this trend, when he surprised everyone as a surprise entrant in the 2006 Elimination Chamber match 'December to Dismember' for the ECW championship.

He eventually won the contest and walked out as the new ECW Champion. He can do the same in the upcoming Elimination Chamber match and if he goes on to win the Universal Championship, a feud between him and Braun Strowman will please the WWE Universe.
