There is only 3 guys I think were a decent choice to get early title runs, and all 3 got title runs in the first year they were in WWE/WCW, and they are Angle, Bigshow, and Brock.
Angle was an Olympic champion, and is still pretty huge today.
Bigshow, well the Gaint at the time, was a Gaint, and there is no reason not to have a guy at that size main event when he is still hot.
Brock was possibly one of the best quick build ups ever. Here was a guy that looked the part, and could play the part.
Anyone else who ever got an early title run, execpt for maybe Goldberg has kinda sucked. Orton was crap. Cena is sub-par. Batista leaves something to be desired. Then most everyone else has paid their dues.
