Another excellent point.

The one that concerns me about Dibiase is this:

-The WWE turns him face and puts him in a program with Orton
-Dibiase gets nice sized pops
-Dibiase/Orton feud eventually ends
-Dibiase's pops eventually die down and he basically becomes a late 90's/early 00 version of Test (if you recall correctly, Test's face pops also died down considerably once his program with Stephanie McMahon and DX ended).

I don't think Dibiase has the charisma right now needed to be a strong face for the long run. By sticking with Rhodes and feuding with Orton (as heels), I think it would be better for both in terms of garnering heel heat and character development.
