[Except for the fact that Raiden is corrupted now so he wasn't going to reverse them anyway. It's indicated that the revenants follow corruption, given they quickly started following Shinnok after Quan chi died. That would also explain why they so willingly followed raiden's orders since it's now in him.]

Nothing really indicates how Raiden got corrupted,so perhaps he's merely Dark Raiden now because he's pissed off at having his peaceful approach shoved back in his face so many times...I know I would be. Also,since when did Raiden give them orders to follow? He just warned them that he wouldn't just stand by if anyone attacked again. The air that came out of his mouth is the only thing in the way of Liu and Kitana from attacking again,now with an ever-growing army of the dead.
