I wanted to give you a quick update on the Johnny Cage, Daniel Pacina Autograph Contest. And we do have our three winners. The three winners are Georgeopolis, Harley Jackson, and Lino Rivera. Congratulations, and those things are in the mail and on their way. So hopefully we'll get them within the next couple days. So as you can see behind me, I've got my Mortal Kombat cabinet. Got it about the same time Ralph did. It finally showed up in Indianapolis. It seemed like it was the only city left in the entire world that didn't get it. But when I go to get Dana Fassina's next interview, I'm actually going to have them sign the control panel. It's going to be awesome. I can't wait. What I'd like to do is go over the quiz answers, too, and see how many you would have gotten right. Question number one. What was the title of the movie that Johnny Cage starred in that won an award? Sudden Violence. Second question. What was Johnny Cage's, the character's, real name? John Carlton. Number three, what was Johnny Cage's ex-wife's name? Now it's interesting because every single person answered this as spoiler warning, if you haven't played Mortal Kombat 11, stop it now don listen to this with Sonya Blade However that actually wasn the answer I was looking for If you look at Johnny Cage bio from Mortal Kombat 1 it's actually his ex-wife's name was Cindy Ford. I don't think it was anybody who actually got that. Now, it is true. Sonya Blade was Johnny Cage's ex, according to Mortal Kombat 11. But I hadn't played the storyline of Mortal Kombat 11 yet, so I didn't even know that. So, thanks for spoiling it for me. Just kidding. I already knew. Question number four. Daniel Pacino played the henchman of a super villain in a blockbuster movie. What was the name of the super villain? It was Shredder. He actually played a foot soldier in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2 Secret of the Youth. And the fifth question. What two ninjas that were represented in the first three Mortal Kombat's, Mortal Kombat 1, Mortal Kombat 2, and Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3, did Daniel Pacino not play? And those were actually Ermac and Reign. How many questions did you get right? Congratulations again to all three of the winners and if you didn't win this time that's okay there will be plenty of other contests we'll do later. Thanks again for everybody who participated in the contest and if you liked this video give us a thumbs up, subscribe to the channel, hit the bell for notifications if you want to see more Retro Ralph and we'll see you guys on the next Ralph's Retrospect.
