That was good, long-term, non-load-blowing booking. DiBiase stepped out of line and was smacked back into place by his mentor. He took his medicine and kept going. If they had treated the first Orton/HHH encounters like that, Orton wouldn't have spent years crawling back up to the main event level. At this point, when DiBiase does turn against Orton, there will be months, maybe even years of buildup to it, which will exponentially increase the payoff.
