Kung Lao bears the same name as his great ancestor who was killed by Goro thousands of years ago. Kung Lao was once a member of the White Lotus Society, but is now a nomadic warrior. When Liu Kang traveled into Outworld, ending up competing in Kahn's tournament there, Kung Lao traveled with him. Lao had been studying Shao Kahn and his realm, and wanted to help Liu Kang in his mission to Outworld. Kung Lao ended up defeating Kintaro and hoped Liu Kang would be able to beat Shao Kahn. Both were attacked by Outworld forces, and escaped back to Earth. Once there, Kung Lao tried to reform the White Lotus Society in order to train warriors for Kahn's future attempts at taking the Earth. But Kahn attacked sooner than anyone had expected. Kung Lao found himself to be one of the last remaining humans while Kahn's forces overran the Earth realm. Kung Lao helped Liu Kang and the other Earth warriors in their attack against Kahn. They were successful, and the Earth was restored, but Lao had suffered severe wounds in the fight, and died shortly afterward. For a time, Kung Lao joined his great ancestor in the afterlife. When the Mortal Kombat tournament against Shinnok's forces is about to begin, Rayden gathers great fighters from all over the Earth to kombat this threat. Because Shinnok is bringing dead warriors back from the grave for the tournament, by the rules of Mortal Kombat Rayden is free to do the same. The first warrior he revives is Kung Lao. Hiss amazing fighting skill will be invaluable to the Earth's cause. Even if it's only for a short time, Kung Lao is proud to once again be fighting in the name of his great ancestor.
