Here's how I would book Mark Henry vs. Randy Orton:
* Mark Henry cuts a promo on SmackDown! next week about how he smelled fear on Randy Orton last week. Orton should be afraid, because nobody can stop the most dangerous man in the WWE. And Teddy Long, Triple H, Johnny Ace -- it doesn't matter -- the suits better be hoping Henry beats Orton at Night of Champions, so he can get what has been coming to him for fifteen years. Because that's the only way this is going to stop. It's the only way people aren't going to be hurt no more. The last is Randy Orton.
Orton comes out and corrects Henry. "You're not the most dangerous man in the WWE...I am." Orton says that the reason he's won 9 World Championships by the time he's 31, while Henry has won none, is just because he's better. Orton says he knows Henry is going to be a challenge -- but Orton will hit him with an RKO at Night of Champions and get the win. And then -- not to avenge anyone -- but for his own personal satisfaction -- Orton is going to go to that corner, take aim at Mark Henry's head...and kick him so hard that his reign of terror will be over. His career will be over. Henry actually seems to sweat this.
* En route to Night of Champions, Randy Orton beats Ted DiBiase in a match requested by DiBiase to prove himself after getting the RKO. Daniel Bryan also gets a match against Mark Henry, since Bryan didn't get his spot in the Battle Royal. Henry beats Bryan, and looks to put him out after the match, but Orton comes in and nails Henry with an RKO.
* Yeah, that sort of stuff goes on, and we get a tag match pitting Cody Rhodes & Mark Henry against Orton & Bryan. At Night of Champions, Bryan beats Rhodes to win the IC Title and Orton RKOs Henry to retain the World Heavyweight Title. Orton is lining up the punt when Christian attacks and lays out Orton. We get a Hell in a Cell between the two to finalise their feud, and Henry moves on to a pissed off Kane.
