I thought his tone was kind of sarcastic when he said it. Maybe its just me.

if they give meat his own moves and a decint story line he wont be to bad a charcter

Played the video myself.He OFFICIALLY said Meat.There's no WAY he's backing out of this one.

Meat in MKA... What a stupid idea...Meat is not even a character, just a skin... Yeah, I know this is not the first unofficial character who become a true Kombattant (Ermac was originally a bug, Reptile, Smoke, Noob Saibot and Jade were hidden and non-playable characters at first), but this is not a reason to bring back Meat, he's just a red skeleton, I really don't know how he could be improved...
I never ever will play with Meat, I swear it...

LOL everyone is over reacting about me. I ain't a meat fan either but if hes in who cares lol. We can kick his A** with so many people maybe we can make a wolf like character and he can drool when he sees meat. Seriously though it be kool if hes in and same with karmelion and anyone of thoses 1/2 characters.

It sounds to me like he says that 'neat' character from mk4. Isn't it also a coincedence that he had just unlocked Reiko?
Here is a soundbyte he recorded from the part I think youre reffering to:

I don't know if I'm allowed to post it for copyright reasons, but this needs to be heard. Why would he say Meat character when he mentioned in ]{ombats interview that he wasn't even a character?

^^ Nope Im still hearing Meat.
Also from the }[ombat video (which happened to be my question) remember that Ed Boon said that he may add in Meat as a super unlockable but didnt want to make any promises right now.

sounds like he said meat to me
