8. Jax VS Goro

When all the characters have gathered for the tournament, Shang Tsung calls a fight for "entertainment", a captured Jax against his reigning champion, who is received in a standing ovation, Goro.

The massive Shokan removes his cape in dramatic fashion, revealing his characteristic extra set of arms and leaving the characters in awe. Jax prepares himself and goes to fight him, but his blows don't even make him flinch. Goro then grins and starts punching him all around the arena, even grinding him against the force field that contains it, all while Shang Tsung lays back and enjoys the show.

As Goro grabs Jax by the torso, pulling on his arms, Shang Tsung delivers the iconic "Finish Him!" and, through X-ray, we see how Jax's arms are separated from his body, still alive. Fortunately, Raiden intervenes before Goro can kill Jax.

We know that Jax is gonna be OK, better than OK, actually since his arms will now be replaced by extremely high-tech prosthetics that will allow him to join the future fights for Earthrealm.
