Boxing and wrestling are some of the oldest martial arts in the world and were practiced first by greeks and then romans. Pankration, the fusion of both with an added variety of techniques such as kicking, choking and joint locks, is perhaps the first ever no-limits barehanded fighting contest and was strikingly similar to modern mixed martial arts. It was an event in the Olympics and the romans also had their own contests until they were abolished along with all pagan festivals by a christian emperor whose name escapes me.

No real argument against all your other problems, just saying that having boxing and wrestling is quite accurate. Well, you might say that having a shield, a spear, a net and a short sword is being several types of gladiators at once, whereas they were usually split amongst types very strictly. A guy with a spear and net had just that, a guy with a sword might've had just that or a sword and a small shield, it was all about "character types", so to speak, done for show rather than combat in real life.

Also, interested.

Aside from the history thing, even so he has way too much versatility with all the weapons. And it is still around 4 fighting styles. I'd have less problems if he wasn't as "agile" (And the water thing is kind of pretty much just Aqua man. Like, you how these projectiles, what do you need water for?). Like, this sort of character seems like it would be centered around Risk vs reward. But there is little risk with all this stuff. It just leaves a bad taste in my mouth for someone who has been playing MK for years. I look at this and just see Shoa Kahn...
