3. Torturing Daryl

Earlier in the list, it was mentioned that Negan broke the Survivors, and whilst Rick's treatment by the Savior leader was harsh, Daryl's was both harsh and seemingly endless.

After he makes his presence known by taking out some fan favourites in seriously grotesque fashion, Negan takes Daryl hostage, realising he's both Rick's right-hand and one of the most mentally strong of the group. Placing him a small cell, naked and alone in the darkness, he forces Daryl to eat dog food and listen to the same song on repeat whilst showing him pictures of his dead friends.

When Daryl tries to escape, he has him beaten, then forces him to clean the Sanctuary and run around with the walkers at the base's entrance.

Daryl never once breaks, however, refusing to say he's Negan and always thinking of a way to break free. Nonetheless, his treatment at the hands of Negan is one of season seven's harshest moments, further showing the threat he poses and that he's willing to do anything to bring people onto his side.
