Shinnok is a fallen elder god so he can't be killed no matter what you do to him. He has true immortality.

Crushing his head, crushing him into a million pieces...whatever. You can only imprison him or delay his ressurection.

Raiden is different since he is a demigod and gets his powers from the elder god's themselves. So as long as the elder god's choose to keep him alive or powered up he's immortal.
