In a secret backdoor accommodation within the building, Christian hung bound by rope around his wrists, with Edge and Gangrel forced to hold him still as The Undertaker ruthlessly whipped him over and over..

Each slash was met by a grunt of pain from Christian's usually silent mouth, a jolt of his body. Edge looked up at him in concern, while Gangrel was indifferent. Christian had earned the flogging because he revealed to Shamrock where Stephanie McMahon was being held at. Punished for breaking his silence just to be beat into more silence. They were used to Christian being the center of the Ministry of Darkness's abuse. As much as The Brood wanted to, they couldn't free themselves from the forced merging yet..

As Undertaker finally relented, he disappeared into the shadows with his men, leaving Edge and Gangrel to deal with Christian.
