3 months in and already in the main event for the title. Pretty impressive.
Can you think of anyone? I remember Lesnar being pushed really fast as I grew up with him being built as the future of the company. Shame how it turned out.

Sheamus was a pretty fast process. Was in Ecw for a couple months then beat Cena for the title.

I guess Flair when he showed up in WWF. Kind of similar to AJ really in that he was older, and had accomplished a lot elsewhere.

I don't know if these count because the title wasn't involved but they are some pretty impressive initial pushes:
Jericho debuted and was thrown straight into a feud with the Rock.
Big Show debuted and was made part of the ongoing McMahon/Austin feud.
Kevin Owens debuted in a feud with John Cena and even got a clean win over him.

RVD. Debuted in the summer of 2001, headlined No Mercy 3 months later along with Austin and Angle.
Brock Lesnar. 3 months on the main roster and he won the King Of The Ring. 2 months later he was the WWE Champion.
Goldberg. His first match was a PPV main event with The Rock. Was WWE World Champion within 6 months. Obviously he was a huge star in WCW and absolutely everyone knew who he was so he was a main eventer from the get go.
Sheamus. Won the WWE title from Cena only a few months after his debut.
Alberto Del Rio. Debuted in the summer/autumn of 2010, was in the fatal 4 way title match at TLC that year, won the Rumble a month later and was in the world title match at WrestleMania 27. 4 months after that, he was WWE Champion.

while I enjoy AJ and think he should be where he is right now......would he have this spot if everyone that's hurt wasn't?

^^^ only difference with Luger was he never won the WWF title after his gargantuan push.
Oh, and everyone else actually had talent.

It wasn't a main event push, but Umaga got a fast push. Great Khali did aswell.

Kane had a great start. Didn't compete for the title for about 6-7 months but he was booked strong as hell and he actually was the first man to take the title off of Austin.
