Default Cattleya blooming

I have a LC Irene Finney which I bought in bloom last spring. It had
a grown a new pseudobulb with sheath but for 2 or 3 months never
showed any signs of blooming. Then lots of root growth started and I
decided to repot it as it was in a clay pot with the last bulb right
up at the edge (and low in the pot) and I was afraid the next bulb
might get stymied trying to grow. Within 2 weeks of repotting, buds
are visible growing in the sheath.

So the question is... would it have bloomed anyway or did the
repotting shock it into action??
