#5 The Undertaker takes Teddy Long for a ride
At Breaking Point 2009, The Undertaker was on the receiving end of a conspiracy, which saw CM Punk, referee Scott Armstrong, and Teddy Long recreating the infamous Montreal incident from 1997. This led to The Undertaker failing to win the World title from CM Punk.
A segment on SmackDown saw Long entering a limousine, only to find out that The Undertaker was driving the vehicle. A terrified Long screamed, as smoke began filling inside the backside of the car. The limo could be seen leaving the arena, with smoke, as well as Teddy's screams, coming out of the car. The following week, Long was brought to the ring in a coffin, soon after which he legalized Undertaker's Hell's Gate submission move, which had been banned for a while.
