To become a Vasto Lorde, Ichigo would have had to be a Hollow and evolve into a powerful Arrancar. But his most recent full Hollow form could be on the power level of a VL.

That said, it would be awesome to see him do Bankai and let Hollow-Zangetsu take control, sweep the floors with some Sternritters and go violate Yhwach :P
