Really doesn't matter how you build him up, or for how long. If he doesn't have the talent to be there, then he's not ready.

And actually they really didn't do a very good job of building him up.

Being the ass kicker of the shield, and broke Kane's elimination record, which was a good start, but between that and the rumble win, he did nothing. Absolutely nothing of any signifigance. He had had a throwaway feud with Kane (fucking everyone has had a throwaway feud with Kane. It means nothing anymore.) and then he got hurt. Then he came back and won the rumble.

Most big time players have a long exciting journey to reaching the level of main eventer, and it makes seeing that wrestler win the championship really mean something. But Reigns didn't have that. He didn't have any memorable feuds, or have a solid run with the IC or US title. He was in a cool faction, and then all of a sudden he was just there, at the top of the card. That can work for world beaters like Goldberg or Ultimate Warrior (who still captured the Us and IC titles repectively in their meteoric rises.) but Reigns, while an intense personality, really isn't that guy.
