I have been doing martial arts for as long as i can remember and fighting games have always interested me because of that. One thing i liked in the older Mk games different styles that each character used. Now don't get me wrong i am happy they took it out but i did think it was cool because it gave the characters a little more depth.

I have worked with alot of different styles most recently Gracie Jiu Jitsu. One thing i would like to see is a character that really uses jiu jitsu/ Judo. I know that some characters used jiu jitsu or judo in the past but it never really seemed like they took advantage of the styles. Maybe jiu jitsu/ Judo doesnt really belong in MK because with all the projectiles and teleport moves. And Im not really sureif there is a grappling based character in MK.

Any way, i was watching some videos on youtube and i was thinking that they would make some awesome xrays maybe fatalities. There are 2 moves in particular: Knee Bar and the Crucifix

Knee Bar

Crucifix( you can skip to 2:30 if you just wanna see the move)

I could see this working though it may work better if they made the character more well rounded giving him a Kickboxing/Muay Thai striking style

Their story could even be that they are the world greatest MMA fighter with the same fame as Johnny Cage

Im a huge MMA fan and I have been for a long time, I have a massive amount of respect for the sport and the individuals disciplines within it such as BJJ and Judo but I dont think they have any place in this game. MMA has exploded in the last couple years (and aside from films like never back down) I think its brilliant however this trend of trying to shoehorn MMA into everything is starting to grate on me. Amount of times in films or t.v programmes I see someone slap on a triangle or armbar its stupid, for me it has no place in this game.
