User blog:Azeruth/How Does Shao Kahn Survive?

In the opening video of Mortal Kombat: Armageddon we see Onaga pick up Shao Kahn and carries him away. We hear a snapping sound, believed to be Kahn's neck considering he stops screaming (although the Battle of Armageddon says biting his head)...how'd he survive...how'd he return? How'd he still have enough strength to fight Raiden!?
