he was basically wiped from existence by the Elder Gods lol

Then why is his soul inside of Ermac? Does that ring a bell to you? are you being serious right now lol

for starters, only a quarter of these intros are feasible, let alone canon. there's no guarantee for any of them. don't know why you're acting like I'm saying Shao Kahn's soul doesn't exist considering it's entirely fucking separate, just like with all the revenants.

anyways using Ermac to bring him back in the story would be the highest caliber of piss-poor writing and it amazes me people even want that to happen. let Shao Kahn stay gone, he's been done to death already. If Shao Kahn can't be brought back, then have Shang Tsung brought back. He's been around since the original MK. Not counting adventure titles, Shang Tsung has been in every game except for MK4/MK Gold (unless you count a mention of him in Kitana's and Mileena's endings).

Also, since Shao Kahn is gone for good, it's time for Onaga to take his rightful place. He should replace him as the new threat to the realms. But he needs to be more threatening.
