Being a fan of MK games from past to present, being in arcades playing against others, learning tricks they may know, and teaching them one I'd know, I've noticed one thing that's always boggled my mind just a little: Giving names to Fatalities. At first I thought it was kind of silly until I found myself doing it as well. So, for fun, I thought I'd post names I'd given to remind me of the seven original Fatalities of MK1, to see if anyone else had similar names they too had recofnized them as. I even tried naming them after certain songs, or phrase, or movies, for other sequels. What do you guys think for MK1?

Johnny Cage=Deadly Uppercut
Kano=Open Heart Surgery
Raiden=Electric Head
Liu Kang=Cartwheel Uppercut
Classic Sub-Zero=Chriopractor's Nightmare
Scorpion=Toasty!!
Sonya Blade=Firey Kiss Of Death

When something better than UMK3 comes out, I'll let you all know, because it still hasn't happened yet.

Rather interesting names for Fatalities, I usually just stuck to what they were
"Decapitation" "Spine Rip" "Heart Rip" "Kiss of Death". Some magazines got really silly with naming Fatalities, and when UMK3 came out I think it was Gamepro that started giving names to even the combos ex: Ermac "4 hit kick fury" or Jade "4 hit stick spin" It really put a fruity touch to what was far from fruity. This kinda reminds me of the name mispronunciations thread. Eventually DreemerNJ and myself had alternate names for everyone because of this in light of the blatant lack of listening skills a lot of people had. Kano became Heino, (Heinous +Kano) Kabal became Dirtbal (Dirt+Kabal)

Chiropractor's Nightmare was the name of a tag team finishing move I use to do as an indy wrestler, it was a neckbreaker on a guy sitting on the shoulders of my tag partner, kinda like a reverse 3D.

When I played MKI, we had never heard of Toasty so we called Scorpion's finisher Hellfire.
