If she had been invited?


She's been invited but her other parent is nervous about her going. She's like "But daaaad! The fate of Earthrealm is on the line! Jacqui is going and if I win and become champion I will be eternally young!"

Would you let her compete or would you forbid her?

If she can fight well enough to get invited, I probably don't have a choice about it.

If we go by the 90s movie rules, everyone who entered went voluntarily

Sure Sonya was tricked but they all had to go and get on that boat

If she was invited, then Raiden must have chosen her to defend Earthrealm. Trying to prevent her participation could mean the end of our world.

Does Raiden choose the Kombatants?

In the movie he doesn't give anyone but Liu the time of day until they are on the boat. Shang Tsung nabs them

Well considering fatalities dont seem to be performed canonically 100% of the times based on tournament rules I say go for it.

Iirc, anyone can go if they know about it, but someone like Raiden would invite those who have a shot at winning.

That makes sense

Although it makes you wonder why Tsung wanted Cage and Blade there

unless the Elder gods would intervene if they thought Outworld was disenfranchising Earthrealm warriors

Movie wise it's because Shang Tsung wanted someone who would make it to the finals, but still be easy enough (in his opinion) to defeat. This is why the sorcerer challenged Sonya Blade and not Liu Kang (chosen one) or Johnny Cage (defeated Goro). As Raiden said, Shang Tsung is a coward.

The worst part about this is that Sonya immediately turned into a damsel in distress. With her personality I'm sure she would have accepted the challenge and gave Shang one helluva fight.

oh yeah and Shang Tsung also had a boner for Blade. Probably another reason he wanted to fight her.

The point was Sonya had to learn that sometimes even she needs help

So that doesn't bother me.

It does bug me that apparently Tsung isn't allowed to challenge people

I mean hell even if he beat Blade he still had to fight Liu and Johnny another day right?

The movie was kinda wonky on the matter. Shang Tsung can challenge whoever he wants, but Sonya wouldn't accept so that means it's not an official tournament bout. However, Shang Tsung said this would mean Earthrealm forfeits. Maybe he was lying to force her to fight.

Also, since it was an Earthrealm fighter who defeated the Champion Goro, then this probably means only earthrealmers can move on to face Shang Tsung.

wait that's wrong. The whole tournament was Outworld vs Earthrealm. Idk like I said it was wonky.

I guess Sonya and Cage auto forfeit by not fighting

Because the alternative is super anti-climatic

Shang Tsung beats Liu Kang and wins.
Cage and Blade go "Oh that's a bummer."

then they take a break for a few days

Then Tsung fights Cage or Blade in the next fight

You kinda have to assume Liu vs Tsung is an all or nothing finale fight for drama's sake
