He's probably still sleeping and waiting for the call. And what would happen to Blaze? It would be a waste to just have him wait at the pyramid doing nothing. Even if armageddon doesn't happen, I suppose Taven could still be awakened by someone like he was in Kenshi and Takeda's arcade endings, though he wouldn't have as much purpose then. Maybe another npc that joins the good guys for a different story or something. Nothing would have to happen to Blaze necessarily, but he'd become irrelevant, which I'd be fine with in favor of a new story after Onaga. Blaze was never an interesting character, let alone a compelling antagonist or boss, but a shallow plot device. He can still make cool stage cameos, but doesn't really need to be fleshed out further again.

Oh, as for resurrecting Shao Kahn, I'd lean more against that too. He's been done to death.

Unless ways could be found to make him interesting. You never know. But Taven is a must eventually.
