Ok, so the kayfabe reason why Mysterio has been absent from Raw is that he has been tortured somewhere. But, Kane started doing the "Is he alive or dead gimmick" while Mysterio was still appearing on Raw.

We don't know the reason at all.

No, around the same time Mysterio was wrestling Santino.

The week after he beat him the angle started I believe.

Well he didn't start carrying the bag until the week after "Is he alive or is he dead" so they don't necessarily have to be related.

The angle started on the same night as Mysterio's last appearance. Mysterio had his match with Santino early in the show, and the show closed out with the Fatal Four-Way match and Kane's first "IS HE ALIVE OR DEAD" tirade. The sack first appeared the following week.

You know, I wasn't thinking about Rey Mysterio's absense or that would be his mask in the bag until Kane opened it. You really swerved us(or at least me) WWE, Good job. I'd like to see where this storyline is going.

I would have loved it more if they used the "Iron Man" mask that Rey wore last time he was on RAW and it was all blood stained and everything. I love Rey but that would have been awesome.

Actually, is he dead refers to the monster inside Kane, not Mysterio (if I got it right). It's still a mystery on why he has Rey's mask though.

I don't see why people are so concerned with this angle. It's not going to go anywhere. Rey will probably manage to injure himself again before it can play out.

Well I try to make it a point for the sake of my own sanity that when the WWe does something wrong... its cool that I criticise it. But at the same time when they do something right, I owe it to myself to praise it. I thought I had the Kane bag storyline all figured out. But the writers swerved us and its actually a clever and sensible swerve. A kane/Misterio program has never been done to my knowledge and the blow off match of the fued can easily be a mask vs. mask match in which if Rey loses he loses the mask but if Kane loses he has to bring his mask back. This fued has plenty of potential.

Maybe this is swerve of a swerve. Maybe Kane just fooled Adamle and the "rest" of us.

What I wanted was the lights to drop, then red lights fill the arena, Kane standing there with the bag at his feet, red mask on his face. He then proceeds to beat the hell out of the whole security guard force and then sets fire to Mike Adamle.

A good swerve.
As much as I would love to see masked Kane having an actual run at the top as Unstoppable Monster, Rey's mask was a nice way to have a different and less predictable evolution of the angle.
Honestly, who wasn't expecting to see Kane's mask coming out of the bag?

Man, f*** continuity. Just roll with it. It's interesting enough.
