After he left WWE, he left the business and returned to the funeral business. He still appears a wrestling shows and legends shows from time to time and he occasionally appears for WWE, but for the most part he is done with the wrestling business. His wife of 30 years passed away earlier this year.

There is not much information, however from what I found out he went on to do NWA and then he seem to retire in Florida. So, I am assuming that he is either no longer wrestling or is doing a private venture that is not related to wrestling. I agree with you he was a pretty good wrestler.

In the WWE, all the performers are under contract. Paul Bearer's contract expired and he was released. While he was well-liked, the WWE decided that the Undertaker didn't need anyone in the 'manager' role, so they let Paul Bearer go.

Paul Bearer retired from the WWE (and the wrestling business in general), but is still in very good standing with the organization. Believe it or not, he actually works in the funeral business today!
