"Kano: With the defeat of Goro and Shang Tsung, Kano will bring his own brand of treachery to the Tournament.

It will result in the final dismantling of the Tournament and the Battle of the Sans."

"Liu Kang: After defeating mighty Goro and putting an end to Shang Tsung's rule over the Tournament, Kang is able to return the contest to its rightful hosts - the Shaolin Temples. Kang's heroics will always be remembered. He will continue the traditions of the Shaolin Temples and restore the true pride and respect of this once great tournament."

"Raiden: Raiden's victory comes as no surprise to him. He was never impressed by Shang Tsung's inferior sorcery, Goro's brute force, or the challenge of the other contestants.

And the wars result in our world's final destruction. Have a Nice Day."

"Sonya Blade: Captured by Shang Tsung, Sonya's Special Forces unit was taken hostage - their only hope was the tournament.

"Sub-Zero: After receiving the title of Grand Champion, Sub-Zero disappears back into the shadows from which he came. His only goal in the tournament was...the assassination of Shang Tsung. He was paid a large sum of money by one of Tsung's wealthy enemies. With his mission accomplished, Sub-Zero will collect his fortune and retire from his dangerous profession."
