So by the looks of it, either Shujinko or Scorpion was the one that defeated Onaga.
if there was a winner in Deception then Id say its scorpion then because
I too remember him saying that. I say that because its in the game and nothing about shujinko is other than the fact that you find him in prison later in the story. and i know he says he there on purpose but who knows how long he was there.

That's a good point.

To add to that, I think the creators of MK were a little disappointed with how "Shujinko-mania" never really took off. The creators basically wanted Shujinko to replace Lui Kang as the modern day hero, but I think they've retracted their stance since that time (Taven seems to be the guy now).

Given the fact that the creators of MK already love the Scorpion character, they might give the "defeating of Onaga" accolade to Scorpion instead.

The thing however, is that the MAJOR accomplishments usually still belong to the "top" good guys (i.e. defeating Blaze, winning the MK tourney, defeating Onaga, etc.). Scorpion isn't your prototypical "good guy", which is why I'm not sure if the creators of MK will give that "defeating of Onaga" distinction to him.

well dont go too fast... who is to say for sure that taven did defeat blaze? I mean no one would have said that before MK Deception that Shang Tsung and Quan Chi won the conflict of Deadly Alliance.

On Wikipedia, it clearly states that Taven defeated Blaze (and hence, fulfilling the propehcy). However - instead of all of the warrior's powers being nullified, it had an adverse effect. All of the warrior's became stronger!
