What do you think about a stage with a stage fatality like this:

The stage have statuesm around, then, when you are about to do the finshing move you make a combination and, wich last button you push(ex: in PS2 O or X or ...) one of the statues come to live and performes a finishing move:

Forn instance: One of the Statues will slaughter the character in peaces with a sword. Other shoots a light ray and burns the character into ashes. Other smashes the caracter. Other transforms the caracter into a liquid form and then the character start melting on the floor.

And so on. What you think the ideia. I hope you like it
