But wasn't that "normal" Blaze appearance when he stopped Taven from fighting Daegon in Scorpion's Lair mere an illusion? In MK:D ending he was like THIS already.

If Raiden defeated Taven, Daegon would have no one to defeat him, except for Scorpion (who was a damn hard fight on that Knquest mode), but the evil twin was already allied with Darkness, it would be easy to take him down (Shinnok could beat his ass with his legs on the back).

That flashback means two things: or Raiden was defeated by Taven and this one defeated later (by Scorpion or Daegon), or Raiden defeated him and did his part of the deal, but Kahn betrayed him. Well, anyway Kahn would win.

Taven was not bad, he was a victim of his father bullshit plan and the toothless worms.
