14. Paul Bearer Turns On The Undertaker (1996)

The goal of the Boiler Room Brawl match between The Undertaker and Mankind was to fight from the boiler room to the ring, with the winner being the first to claim the Undertaker's urn from Paul Bearer in the ring.

When the pair finally get to the ring, Taker goes to get the urn, but his long-time manager turns his back on him, allowing Mankind to apply the Mandible Claw before Bearer nails Taker over the head with the urn and hands it to Mankind, ending the match.

Given how iconic the bond between Taker and Bearer was, running over five years at this point, it was a huge shock to see Bearer turn on him so suddenly, and the image of him laughing maniacally as he walked out of the arena with Mankind was truly surreal.
