How would you write Taker out?

The Wrestlemania storyline thread got me thinking how would you send Taker off? It doesn't have to be at Wrestlemania or anywhere in particular.

I'm torn between a character send off or a Flair-like send off for Mark.

In character it only makes sense to me that somehow Kane be involved. As Noid pointed out it's probably the only constant in WWE in the last 10 years is that they are brothers. I like the idea of The Undertaker saying he's going back to Death Valley. Have Kane stop him and say there is some unfinished business they need to take care of. Maybe a 3 month or so rivalry without a match between the two before Taker finally says yes. I think a casket match or buried alive might fit but anything would do I guess. If this is going to be all about The Undertaker (not Mark) leaving it would have to be a really over the top finish. I'm thinking Kane chokeslams UT through the ring which starts on fire like they did with Edge. Cue JR saying "He sent him straight to hell!!!". Only have UT climb out through the fire, with a closeup of Kane looking in disbelief, to give his final beat down to Kane. UT does his kneel/eye thing in the ring. Begins the walk to the back surrounded by druids. Have Paul Bearer meet him on the stage. Close up of Bearer saying it's time to go home. UT pauses, turns to take one last look at the crowd, turns back around and raises his arm ala The American Badass and walks away.

I don't think anything like was done for Ric Flair will feel right. The Undertaker needs to leave as his character would, not as Mark would. Sorry for the Noid post. How would you guys send off The Undertaker.
