I'd bet that Taker does go to HOF shows. He's just in the back. He's like Vince who rarely ever appears on camera during it.. and does Kane even come on television either? But nobody could tell me Taker isn't there because I remember Edge kinda making reference to Taker and I'd bet he's in the back. He just won't come out, but for Bearer or his own induction or Kane's for that matter? Bet he'd break that character in a heartbeat. I wouldn't doubt this. Maybe WWE will wait for Taker to retire so there is no character to break and induct them together.

have Taker come out carrying the urn. he gets in the ring and puts it in the middle. circles it a bit then stands behind it,facing the Titantron. then have the music hit and show a graphic memorializing Moody,while Taker goes to one knee in the ring and extends the hand one last time towards Paul Bearer .

When 'Taker raises the lights at 'Mania he should look to the sky and we hear 'Oooooohhh yeeeeeeesssssssss' for one final time.

I think Undertaker should have a small ceremony type intro thing at Wrestlemania before his music starts, that has the titantron play some footage of Paul Bearer with some creepy music. And just before he comes out, re-use Paul Bearer's voice saying "ohhhh yesssssss", then his music begins. But the urn is a MUST in one way or another.

I always heard a rumour that Taker and Paul never really got on. Is there any truth to that?

I would expect there to be some tribute on Monday. Undertaker has been announced for Raw on Monday, so I would expect him to acknowledge it in some way. There's no way he can't. Same with Kane. That's his father, so to speak.

I hope both him and kane do something. It would be fitting.
If theres a small chance we could see others he has managed like mankind and vader then all the bettter but taker & kane are the main ones.
Something in line with Kayfabe would be good - you get the feeling both undertaker and Paul would want it that way (not that i really have any idea). But whatever it is - as long as they do something then it will be good!

For Paul Bearer I think he would break it. He attends UFC Events.. but not HOF? Ha! I believe he attends the HOF but watches from backstage instead of been in the crowd with everyone else.

I'm not sure I would have him do anything. Maybe just have a similar opening to RAW from this past Monday where the show opens with Undertaker coming out. He walks to the ring, does his bow as an image of Paul Bearer appears on the TitanTron, then the show goes into its normal intro and that's it.

Knowing that Taker rarely breaks kayfabe. They should film a promo with him, Kane and even Mankind in like a funeral parlor. You see Mankind holding the urn he passes it to Kane, Kane holds it a bit before passing to Undertaker. Undertaker holds the urn up, and like Bearer use to do, gives it one final kiss, then he rests it on a mantel in front of a portrait of Paul Bearer and on the bottom of the portrait it could say something like "In Memorieum of Paul Bearer" or something. Aside from a HOF induction this would be great send off to the character and William Moody himself. Why don't you work for WWE?

I suspect it will be worked into the storyline as I'm sure Moody was very comfortable with death being used and what not in storylines given that he himself was a funeral director. I'd love to see CM Punk take some jabs, as to be honest he really needs to do that to get real heat. I think anything with the urn or an Undertaker salute on one-knee is proper. Heck, Undertaker can even work it into a promo...I mean it wouldn't really break his kayfabe.

I'd say take a book out of the old school play book when a wrestler would retire or pass, and their boots were left in the ring. He comes out with the urn, places it in the center of the ring, give his kneeling salute, and then walks out, leaving the urn in the ring. would love to see this
