On one episode of Smackdown in December of 2005, just before The Undertaker met Randy Orton in a Hell in the Cell match at Armageddon, 'Taker tortured Randy and his father, Bob with a series of tricks that seemed to come straight from a low-level horror movie and not a very imaginative one at that. Still, it made for a broadcast that people (well, one person, at least) are talking about nearly a decade later. In one of the tricks the creepiest visually a rattled Orton turned to dear old dad for counsel, only to find that the "Ace Cowboy's" face was covered in blood! A shocked Orton flipped out and averted his gaze, but when he looked back, everything was fine there was no blood and the elder Orton was curious about his son's behavior. Still, Randy was terrified, and presumably curious about his Hepatitis status.
