The Undertaker being arrested after trying to sacrifice The Big Bossman

Back in 1999, WWF pulled off one of the most shocking segments on television involving The Undertaker and The Ministry of Darkness, as the satanic group tried to sacrifice The Big Bossman in order to send a message to the Chairman of the Board, Vince McMahon.

At that point in time, The Ministry was engaged in a feud against McMahon's Corporation faction and on an episode of RAW in 1999, The Undertaker ordered his stablemates Edge, Christian, Gangrel, Farooq, Bradshaw, Viscera, and Mideon to ambush Bossman at the parking lot, which they successfully did.

Within minutes, The Ministry made their way out to the arena and was on the verge of sacrificing The Bossman, however, things didn't go accordingly with The Bossman being able to make an escape and The Corporation coming to his save as well.

Shortly afterwards, Corporation stooges Gerald Briscoe and Pat Patterson ordered for The Undertaker's arrest, as the satanic leader of The Ministry was taken in handcuffs by the cops on RAW.
