Rey was over and being pushed accordingly prior to Eddie's death. He wasn't going to ever be a world champion or get a Royal Rumble win/WM main event push, but he was certainly out of the CW division and had moved onto the uppermidcard and was being pushed accordingly as a top star in the WWE.

I agree it was atrocious to have him jobbing to Kane and other regularly in non title matches. But I still buy him wrestling actual matches that aren't him cheating death to escape with his belt, not as a world champion but as a US champion. Perhaps he'd still have to play the underdog card slightly, but not to such an extent.
