These are just some ideas of how a stage fatlity could be performed in MK6. Remember, they could not be implemented in MK: DA in time because of massive errors, which we're hoping that can be fixed for MK6. There are several ways that people would like to see them done.
First off, what will the ring out cause? Will it end the current round and go to the next one, or will it end the match regardless of what round it's on? I'll let you decide that yourselves.
1. Anytime ring-out (damage). Like it says, these can be done at any time, without a protective barrier. Go over, and you'll get damaged. The only way this would work fully is for arenas that allow you to escape the outside and return to the ring.
2. Anytime ring-out (finish). Like the previous, except you cannot get back into the ring, and whatever you hit on the outside kills you instantly.
3. Pressure-sensitive barrier. This is how it was supposed to be in MK: DA. The barrier on the outside would take only so much damage before it would be destroyed, allowing for a ring-out to be possible. When the barrier breaks, it could either allow the person against it to go out immediately, or would stagger them for one more it, and possibly allow for a quick turn of tables for the intended victim to send his opponent out instead.
4. One round barrier. The barrier would only last for one round, and at the start of the 2nd round, would vanish and be gone, allowing for the ring-out. This would work best if the ring-out were meant to end the match and not just the round, as at least one round is guaranteed.
5. Finish Him ring-out. The barrier will be active until the end of the match, when Finish Him is called, at which point the barrier will disappear and the stage fatality can be performed. One catch to this, is that you have to have your opponent close enough to the edge already, and hit him/her with a powerful blow that would send them out.
That's all I can think of right now. You can choose, mix-n-match these, your call. Let everyone (including Midway) know what you think.
