Johnny went to the pier to board the boat to be taken to where the tournament was held. Along the way, he bickered with Sonya Blade but the two grew to like each other as the movie progressed. Johnny Cage had his first match with Scorpion whom he managed to defeat. After a friend of his was killed by one of Shang Tsung's confidants, Goro, Johnny Cage asked Shang Tsung if he could fight Goro. Shang Tsung approved the fight and it was at the beginning of it where he took off his sunglasses only to see Goro take them and crush them. Johnny ran away so Goro followed him and they fought alongside a mountain ledge. Johnny sideswiped Goro and he slipped over the ledge but managed to grab on to it. Johnny watched as Goro lost his grip and fell to his death. Ashby guest starred on the TV show "CSI: Miami". From 1997 to 1998, he played Dr. Brett Cooper on the primetime soap opera "Melrose Place".
