The tribal chief

Is his current run the quickest anyone has gone from being just whatever to being absolutely awesome and carrying the show?   In other words – when he returned at SummerSlam this past year I just thought – “ok, we’re going back to having Reigns shoved down our throats” and within 2-3 weeks he turned, aligned with Heyman, and started the feud with Uso.   I can’t think of anyone becoming “must watch” that fast.   Help me out, am I missing someone?
