I didn't read that as Punk being fed to HHH. I read that as Punk being used to establish HHH's new corporate character, who would later turn heel and then himself be fed to Punk to build Punk as a major face. And my guess is they're still going to do that. Saying HHH hired Punk late Monday looks like the start of establishing HHH's bonafides as COO. And they're obviously pushing that character very hard, putting him on both shows this week.
It would, however, have looked like Punk being fed to HHH if they'd done the pedigree/cash in Monday, so I'm glad they didn't do it. Zero sense in that, not on the night he returned. From his extended vacation.
