    I love how consistently but subtly Capcom reminds us that Akuma is a pretty decent, normal guy when not fighting. He sells fruit at a roadside fruit stand to make a living, plays arcade games, waits for his luggage at the airport, and made friends with Elena. Sure, some of that was from the anime series a while back, but it's there.

      In the old timeline, it is revealled that Shao Kahn is a god in deception, and Raiden had to restrain his god powers (which can shake the planet to its core and cause the extinction of the dinosaurs) in order to participate in Mortal Kombat, so something similar might have happend with Shao Kahn.

    Honestly, if you ask me Akuma was the faster fighter if you include his appearance in Tekken 7 into account assuming its canon which I think it is considering surviving the Raging Demon was considered a canon feat by Heihachi Mishima in his death battle against Geese Howard, I see no reason why it isn't canon for Akuma. Akuma landed the Raging Demon on Heihachi Mishima (Granted it didn't kill him due to plot and he was caught by surprise) who could react to at least 4.09% the speed of light according to the episode mentioned above by scaling to an Inferior Jack models and Heihachi and Akuma could outmanoeuvre Jack-7s no problem. That is more then double the fastest speed feat Shao Kahn has shown. This didn't even mention the fact that Akuma wasn't in Shin Akuma or Oni form when he fought Heihachi so it's likely the gap been Akuma and Shao Kahn is even bigger then that. I am not saying that Kahn couldn't win this fight he was stronger and more powerful but that doesn't really translate into direct combat I mean Liu Kang has beaten him time and time again so between the Raging Demon and Akuma's superior speed I think Akuma should have won this.

    Just for clarification, Liu Kang and Raiden's power combined was capable of matching Cetrion because one is a Thunder God and the other is one strong enough to beat Shao Kahn single-handedly everytime they fought. So how exactly does this mean Shao Kahn scales to the Elder Gods in power? Shao Kahn beat Raiden outside of Earthrealm each time he won, Raiden is much weaker when he steps into another realm. Even Shang Tsung feared Raiden's wrath during the first tournament that took place in Earthrealm. When Kahn invaded Earthrealm at the end of MK9, he was powered up off the majority earthrealm souls and that of the slain Earth's greatest warriors that Sindel killed. Kahn obeyed the Elder Gods' rules for a reason. If we're to get even deeper, Shao Kahn was murdered by a combined assault from Shang Tsung and Quan Chi, the same two who defeated Raiden and Liu Kang. If he truly was as mighty as the Elder Gods, he would have been Shinnok level power which he certainly was not. Kahn is a beast, but he is not Elder God level.

      Kinda sad they ignored the Asura's Wrath DLC. Yeah Shao Kahn can keep up with with Gods that can grow to the size of the earth but so did Asura. Asura even killed a planet sized god with a single punch to the fingertip. And Akuma was fighting that guy for 500 years. But I guess thats to far off the canon stuff for Akuma.

    I'm not generally a fan of power-scaling, but I acknowledge that it can be used well in some cases. "Cetrion barfs a space-laser in one of her fatalities, and she's an Elder God like Raiden, and Shao Kahn has beaten Raiden, so Shao Kahn can move at the same speed as the space-laser Cetrion barfed." is not one of those cases. Just the absolute dumbest and most uninteresting way you could have handled this fight.

    What's funny, thanks to Mortal Kombat 1, which all but confirms all character endings in MK11 is canon, it means there is a canon version of Shao Kahn who became the titan of time, giving him power over all of creation in his timeline, and became more powerful than all of the Elder Gods combined (If Liu Kang's words about titan power is correct). So depending on how you want to look at it, and this is just me, Shao Kahn could've just erased Akuma from existence.
