Yeah, you can tell the writers just wanted Kang "out of the way". That's why they keep making him evil or die.

He should be a lot stronger than what we get too. Liu Kang is the Champion of Mortal Kombat. He defeated Shang Tsung AND Shao Kahn. Yet the writers make it like just anybody could pull that off. His move set should be a bit more damaging.

They say he's arrogant, but he's earned it! How are they gonna rag on him for that, then get behind Johnny/Cassie Cage, who have done much less?

My only issue with Cassie beating Shinnok is she should have looked more worn down in the final cut scene and they should have shown Kung Jin helping her. Corrupt Shinnok must be quite a step down from Shao Kahn if Cassie beat him. (Which makes no sense because he's an Elder God, but whatever.)

Instead of killing off Liu Kang, they should have made him a mentor for the next generation. Kung Lao too. When they killed him in the first timeline, it was okay since it was different and unpredictable. But in this time line it feels like the writers just wanted to be edgy.

Liu Kang should be a Demi-God in Earth Realm, not ruler of the Nether Realm. Give that to Rain and Mileena. Especially if Rain masters lightning controlling and super heated water. He could be an evil Storm God opposite to Raiden.
