It was weird hearing he was gonna be in it, but then I realized he never really died in 9. If duke's gonna have a wrestling style and that shyt let's him be a pseudo-grappler, I'd be down.
His 3 variations could be;
Wrestler - Straight Grappler and quick moves
Bowie Knife - Does work up close with a knife
Cyborg - Uses that eye laser and chest laser and other cybernetics to fight.
EDIT: Since Kotal Khan straight Shang Tsung'd his heart rip fatality, let Kano put in work with that bowie knife, straight throat slit, but the victim fights as the blade rips through his/her throat, shyt could be straight vile and

if done right and I know Netherrealm can do that shyt right lol.
