On Monday's Raw, Kane turned heel after losing a World Heavyweight Championship number one contender's match by attacking commentators Michael Cole and Jerry Lawler as well as several other ringside employees, repeating "Is He alive or is He dead?" Apparently, some people think Kane is talking about storyline father Paul Bearer, who was essentially murdered on television at the 2004 Great American Bash when Undertaker pulled a lever burying him in cement. On the following week's SmackDown, Bearer was acknowledged to be alive, although gravely injured, in a brief note from one of the announcers. So unless fans remember that brief mention on commentary, they probably think he's "dead" in the WWE world.
Since Monday's angle, his website has been flooded with traffic, not to mention that he's been getting a ton of e-mails. He commented on the situation on his blog with the following post:
ALIVE OR DEAD?

Mercy...
PP.com has had over 20,000 visitors since WWE RAW went off the air last night, and my mailbox has been bombarded with emails. The question of the day seems to be...
"Was Kane's rampage last night about his cemented Father Paul Bearer?"
Sorry, but I can't answer that one. Interesting storyline, isn't it?
Be Blessed.

I see where the Paul Bearer storyline could come from, but why wait so long? That was 4 years ago. I think that the story lies with Vince.
DopplegangerSomebody caused the accident that happened to Vince, and that is the storyline at hand. At first I thoght that the Boogeyman and his voodoo may have been behind it, which would explain some of the weird occurences in the past couple of weeks, but the recent events surrounding Kane force me to believe that Kane was behind it somehow...........
Kane would have been asking if Vince was alive or dead, and would be pissed that no one was releasing any info about it.........
It is a long shot anyway you go though, and until we find out more anyones guess is just as good as mine..........
