No, highly HIGHLY doubtful. It could be a big deception... perhaps the deception, but it aint gonna happen. Liu will not be the DK. As for Reptile, he isnt exactly the Dragon King persay.... he was prophezied to find that Great Dragon egg. Hes more like the vessel in which the Dragon King brings himself forth... BUT, lets analyze what we know about the DK's origin so far... perhaps Reptile isnt a vessel for the DK, but has converted into more higher being than he was previously... to us, a sub-boss.

The Dragon King was an ancient ruler of Outworld before Shao Kahn's rise to power. He had formed the greatest army that realm had ever known. An army so powerful that it had never lost a battle. In an attempt to gain immortality and rule Outworld forever, The Dragon King commanded his holy men to hatch the last known Great Dragon egg. Legends told that drinking the blood of a newborn dragon would bring eternal life only if the dragon was slain moments after hatching. Unfortunately, the Dragon King died prematurely. His holy men loyally continued to incubate the egg with the intent of eventually reviving the dead king with the dragon blood. His army allowed themselves to be ritualistically slain and were buried in the pyramid along with their sovereign to be resurrected as well some time in the future. Generations of the Dragon King's holy men had been incubating the egg in secret ever since. As the prophecy had been told through the ages ... "Upon the birth of the last Great Dragon will the Dragon King return." Reptile tracked Cyrax and Nitara to the Lava Shrine as the vampire searched for the orb which bound her to Outworld. He arrived too late to exact his revenge on the pair. Suddenly an expectant hush filled the chamber as energy cascaded around what appeared to be a dragon embryo. The tiny dragon stretched and the egg cracked. A beam of energy ripped out from inside and lanced into Reptile. His world was filled with roaring power as his squamous body was twisted and transformed. The ancient prophecy had been fulfilled: the Dragon King had returned.

It states that DK's priest will continue to incubate the egg, and one day ressurect the DK with the Dragon's blood. It also states that the army was buried in the pyramid, NEXT to their sovereign. The DK's physical remains, or body is mummified, still, in his tomb. Perhaps they will ressurect the DK through his already present mummified physical body, and he will not come forth through Reptile? Only Deception will answer this question...

I don't think so. No offense, your opinion is your opinion, but absolutely not. I will be pissed if this turns out to be the case cause IMO I think it's a bad idea.

For the love of god, please no.....

even though the idea of Liu Kang being the DK sounds kinda...IMPOSSIBLE...that would have been quite a twist to see Earth's former champion being ressurected as it's greatest threat.

NO, no, no, no! Please, this can't happen! Kang is dead I don't like that fact, ubt it is the way things are, Now granted I am not his biggest fan, I didn't really use him much, but I think his character deserves more respect than that. I wouldn't want him back as earth's greatest enemy. Let him R.I.P

Dear God NO! no...........NOOOOOOOOO!!!

Well, you have to take Reptile's MK: DA ending into account because the MK team did say that he'll evolve in the next MK game. Perhaps that doesn't necessarily mean that Reptile will become the Dragon King, but then again, he could become the new Dragon King. Liu Kang's Animality may have been a Dragon but you have to keep in mind that the Dragon King existed way before he was born and Liu Kang is dead.
