...his name is Blair. Side note, is there any rule that would prevent Blair from actually running for reelection and becoming Prime Minister again?

Aside from the the hatred towards him by Labour, there's no reason to stop him running for leader and becoming PM. There's not even a rule that the PM has to be an MP (it's almost like Speaker in the US)
Technically no, but I just can't see the established convention being set aside, unless of course one pulls Alec Douglas-Home (a quick by-election).
