World Heavyweight Champion Kane demands that Edge return Paul Bearer
At Survivor Series, the World Heavyweight Championship Match ended in a draw, thanks to an extremely controversial finish. Though Kane returned to SmackDown with the title still in his grasp, he continued to agonize over the whereabouts of his father Paul Bearer, abducted two weeks ago by Edge. At The Ultimate Opportunist’s prodding, an uncharacteristically subdued “Devil’s Favorite Demon” asked The Master Manipulator “nicely” to return “The Father of Destruction” to him. But, Edge did not find his request sincere enough to oblige him.

Kane’s obsessive search to reclaim his father continued throughout SmackDown. Every time Kane thought he had caught up with The Ultimate Opportunist, all he found was an empty wheelchair. When The Rated-R Superstar appeared in the crowd with Paul Bearer, threatening to hurl him down the arena stairs in his wheelchair, Kane tried to appease him by offering another opportunity at the World Title. Edge accepted, but still held on to Paul Bearer.

However, that was not Edge’s biggest hit of the night. After luring Kane out to the parking lot, The Master Manipulator drove over a fake “Paul Bearer” dummy in full view of the horrified World Heavyweight Champion. As Edge drove on, the petrified Paul Bearer could be seen, still captive in the back seat.
