Wait, what are you talking about? Raiden only has foresight because of a message to him from his future self during the Armageddon events. Also, Shinnok cloned himself so that he could try to take over the realms. It was his clone that participated in MK: Armageddon. So technically speaking, Shinnok did survive Armageddon.
