+TheHalogen131 I like the theme when raiden fights sam ''the only thing i know for real'', it beat rules of nature in almost anything imo, but as you said, every single track is worth it
I remember reading this exact same thing too. Granted he isn't exactly wrong. After all, Berserker Rage is when Wolverine loses all sense of thinking where as Ripper Mode just turns Jack into a psycho killer.
Jeremiah Duran Are you dumb? Ultimate Wolverine's Adamantium is shit compared to 616. His Adamantium got easily broken by the likes of the Hulk while 616 Adamantium till today still can't be broken down by the Hulk. There's only one version of Raiden bub. They chose 616 because he's the strongest version. Ultimate Wolverine is WEAK compared to 616 considering he can be decapitated so easily.
Worth noting that Raiden casually says "Shit, not again!" when he gets his arm chopped off by Wolverine, so regarding the comment of how much punishment could Raiden take, let's just say that's only a slight hint. Raiden's pretty OP and it really comes down to if he can get past Wolverine's adamantium and healing factor.
+comicking428 Personally, I thought it was a great reference to Revengance's opening when Raiden got his arm cut clean off by Sam (not to mention it was Sam's fault for Raiden's missing eye too). Kind of ironic though that Deadpool's healing factor is even more broken than Wolverine's though. Could have sworn that we've seen situation where Deadpool got his head lobbed off and yet he reattached himself just fine after a while.
mas8705 Well Deadpool doesn't have an adamantium skeleton, so it's more likely. But I'm pretty sure it's confirmed that Deadpool's healing factor is much better than Wolverine's.
+comicking428 actually there the same its just the adamantium fucks wolverine's healing factor up. if he didn't have the adamantium skeleton his healing factor would do the same as deadpool
Since you two aren't Metal Gear fans, I'd like to explain some gripes that you had with Raiden winning. Just to reassure you, I'm not hating or anything, I'm just trying to help explain why they made the decision they made. Raiden spotting Wolverine's weakness: In Zandatsu Mode, Raiden can more easily spot enemy weaknesses. This is indicated to the player with an orange box. You can see that happen at 13:37. That being said, using Zandatsu Mode, which Raiden did use to finish off Wolverine, he would have been able to identify that the brain was the spot he should aim for. Raiden's durability: Not only did his suit resist the force of throwing a Metal Gear Ray, but it withstood the Murasama. He battled a rival who wielded the Murasama before Raiden was given it (also at 13:37), and his cyborg body was able to stand up to the incredible cutting power, which Wolverine couldn't do.
well , only wolverine's bones are made of adamantium , but not the spaces between them, so, tecnically you can cut wolverine's neck and kill him...I guess raiden identify his neck as a weak spot and then finished him with the skull cutting
If you cut his neck he won't die he will just heal it back anyways his sword is nothing like vabranium ... Attic vabranium is way stronger than raiders sword because the vibranium uses sound and shit plus wolverines claws would've cut his sword in half easy. Anyways wolverines ultimate form is he can't sufficate or die from losing his brain his healing factor is like deadpools.
+Hellkaiser Actually, they've covered this point before the battle. They said that Wolverine's creator stated that Wolvie's Joints are linked with tiny adimatium chains. Yeah, they didn't really understand it either. :/
+Mariodude126 Not to mention that he was stabbed dozens of times, impaled, lost both of his arms, and was crushed by a several thousand ton warship and survived. In his OLD body.
AkumaTh1 I also noticed that Murasama spent a little while stuck inside Wolverine. I'm sure that went a long way towards weakening his skeleton enough for Raiden to slice through it.
+Cody Hines Imagine how the X-men would react to dealing with losing another teammate so soon after the death of Beast (I assume that the fights in Death Battle exist in the same universe).
A lot of your questions about Raiden were actually answered in the games but sadly not brought up in the analysis: he can still function perfectly fine while impaled, he somehow doesn't bleed too much so those wounds won't affect him too much, he does have access to healing items in the game which work almost as well as stealing from other cyborgs, he can detect weak points, Jack the Ripped mode doesn't block out pain, he naturally blocks out pain but JtR mode allows him to feel it again (essentially driving him insane), and he once killed someone who was essentially a combination of Wolverine's regenerative abilities/indestructibility and Raiden's strength (with his only advantage being the Murasama and possibly his speed). So yeah, the analyses didn't do him justice, but the fight itself did. As for Wolverine surviving being skeletonized, I kinda figured he survived due to his skull protecting at least the most primal (and vital) parts of his brain, allowing him to regen from that.
I'm a pretty big Marvel fan, and I was rooting for Wolverine, but as soon as the super sword came into play I knew the old Canukclehead wouldn't make it. Still a great fight.
+D180223 They are the first fan base on here so far that hasn't gone bat shit crazy over a character losing haha. I'm sure there are some that are butt hurt by the loss, but I am surprised to see so many so far taking the loss rather well and giving, Raiden his respect.
The fight was just for entertainment, in a real fight Wolverine wouldn't have been able to touch Raiden once and, if his sword really can cut adamantium, Raiden would've killed Wolverine in seconds. But that would've made a boring fight
Someone else probably said it, but to collaborate: Raiden's durability might not have been stated sufficiently, however his cyborg body is capable of withstanding incredible amounts of punishment. In his most recent game, damn near every enemy he faces is a cyborg with similar super strength and reflexes as him (though not always as good), or giant robots. He can tank a lot of damage coming from missiles, other high-frequency weapons, and other ridiculous things; bullets barely do anything to him are a minor annoyance at best. Remember that giant sword he was shown to rip off and swing at the giant spider robot? The entire point of that robot and its weapons were to be able to tear apart cyborgs and Raiden can take several hits from it without dying. Also, Raiden has lost his arms and fought on more than once in the games (which was why he was carrying his sword in his mouth in one of the cutscenes). Plus going into an insane bloodlust can make you forget about losing an arm; hell, Raiden loves pain so it probably helped. His entire body, except for a few parts of his head and brain, is purely mechanical and can operate even when taking heavy damage. Basically, for all of the punishment Raiden can do with his sword, his body is made to be able to withstand similar amounts of punishment.
Jaime Subias Perez Raiden gets cut up by his enemies too. Quite often in fact. It isn't about if Wolverine can cut him, it is if Wolverine can kill him. And sure Wolverine could kill Raiden, but it is far more likely Raiden would overpower Wovlerine before that happens as the research suggests would be the case.
Necrikus Yeah is not like wolverine haven´t fight with opponents with a similar or even better speed before but you are right Raiden win,having a weapon that can cut the adamantium is a very big asset, and is true that wolverine often forget about his skill and strategie and simplie charge against the enemy trusting in his healing factor and a adamantium in his whole body, even in his joints, to protect himsel, this is a good ej. www.universomarvel.com.aq/imagen.php?img=wolverine/wolverine_m_po_1.jpg www.universomarvel.com.aq/imagen.php?img=wolverine/wolverine_m_po_2.jpg www.universomarvel.com.aq/imagen.php?img=wolverine/wolverine_m_po_3.jpg
They didn't say his sword was like vibranium, they said the effect of the electricity running through it and causing it to vibrate at such high speed was similar to that woman's vibranium which acts in the same way. It's basically a sympathetic resonance (a real thing) that weakens the bonds between atoms and makes them easier to break apart.
Wolverine's decades of experiences compared to raiden's don't really matter as wolverine's healing factor means he didn't have to learn from his mistakes where as raiden was always vulnerable so he had to learn to become a better fighter
Dat tongue...but wow. This feels early for Death Battle. Keep up the good work. While they didn't mention Raiden's fight with Armstrong that kind of set you guys up with failure. Armstrong is stronger and very similar to Wolverine and Raiden beat him. Also you didn't do the number game. Wolverine tagged someone who moves as fast as sound while Raiden can actually hit that speed by out running bullet trains, and that's not his final form. Also Wolverine lifts 2 tons and Raiden did over 1000 in his non final form. Just pointing out the raw details that looked like it was missed. Raiden outclasses Wolverine in speed and strength too much and could've ended the fight with a Zandatsu in the beginning. Also Raiden is stupid durable(Had both his arms chopped off MGS4 and again in MGR) and his sword is ID locked so only he can use it. Raiden enjoys the pain and gets punched through a Metal Gear, multiple times. Raiden usually turns his opponents into dust. Whenever I saw someone play the game they cut everyone into 500 parts (it gives you a part count in the game). Again though he doesn't seem efficient because he fights people that will keep fighting when their limbs are chopped off. So it's weird that he finds Wolverine weird. He fought people that can attach other limbs, remove their limbs and make them fly around and split their bodies into over a 2 dozen parts (didn't even bother counting in game).
***** they should have clarified that bullet trains in metal gear are way faster than ones in our world. that was an error on their part. the massive strength difference was stated though.
***** true and one iteration the Hulk deboned Wolverine. Then the newer versions say that Wolverines bones are chained together, somehow. Also the Hulk doesn't think and doesn't have a real win condition. The HF sword is pretty absurd, hence why it's ID locked. The ID lock does two things. If it's sheath it won't be removed. If it's removed it won't release it's waves when someone else grabs it. And Spock one shot Wolverine twice, one being the new generation ST
+GÖKTÜRK GAMİNG don't be mad that Wolverine didn't have the right "gear" for the job. I guess he just wasn't "sharp" enough. Riden was just a "cut" above the rest. man I need to cut it out.
+hyperlinkvscloud DeathBattle just determines who the most likely winner would be. Its not necessarily the one that would actually win as in a real fight between these characters there could be many other elements involved such as other threats, distractions and the character's choices in the battle that could effect the outcome. People need to stop getting so butthurt. XD
Raiden has a reason for not going for the head in Revengeance. Enemy cyborgs have valuable data stored in their left hands, and their spines are where they keep the fuel cells Raiden uses to power himself. Wolverine, not being a cyborg, would give Raiden no reason to do these things, so he'd go for any weak points he'd associate with a regular human.
Scauldron Jhon Not exactly. Metal Gear Cyborgs still have brains. It's what separates them from things like unmanned gears, so Raiden doesn't avoid aiming for the head because it wouldn't kill enemies, it's because there are goodies stashed elsewhere in the cyborg body besides the brain. Wolverine saying he's not a cyborg would have no bearing on whether or not Raiden went for the head. If anything, he'd be _less_ likely since that means for all Raiden knows Wolverine could survive losing his head.
Drowning/suffocation 'supposedly' can kill wolverine, think it was stated that his healing factor just prolongs the suffering. Also the scene with wolverine tearing his hand out of the handcuffs is from the game x-men origins: wolverines. Decent game, I liked it.
+treant deu his upgraded version is even stronger, i mean he lifted metal gear excelsus, which, and don´t quote me on that, must have at least around 5000 tonnes, and he also sustained a brutal beating from a guy, who can punch tanks into space, and make earth shatter
In regards to efficiency, Raiden is able to sense weakspots in Zandatsu and Jack the Ripper mode. Also, I think only Raiden's head is human, the rest is mechanical.
"I already think he has this" ...you REALLY need to play Metal Gear Rising Revengeance. If I send you a copy, will you promise to play it? It's bloody though, so it's okay if you do t play it on the channel
crcoghill Well if you have an Xbox 360 or a ONE you can still play it, i mean there are collection edition (you know the ones that have like 3 games in one ?) and the new gen ones like MGSV The Phantom Pain came out in Xbox as well
Damn, that whole thing about them matching up the properties of 2 things between universes that you mentioned in the beginning. You're very good at predicting very specific things.
+Indy The Great lol Well, it's something to take into account with Death Battle. I mean, thinking back to Vader VS Doom, or Guts VS Nightmare, comparing the properties was essential to the outcomes.
Dean. If there's one thing I like about you is that you try your hardest to make people smile. And that's all you need sometimes. Also I liked your kid Icarus series alot
One tiny bit of misinformation with this battle. Raiden's blood needing dialysis was only with the first-gen artificial 'White Blood' from his first cyborg body. His newer body that they use in the Death Battle used second-gen artificial 'Red Blood' that was self-filtering using internal systems designed to be a cybernetic facsimile of organic kidneys. So really, Raiden could have kept the fight going a lot longer if he needed to.
YES! +Ris Grestar I can't wait to watch your reaction to this Death Battle I paused it as soon as you said "Hey guys and how about we watch a Death Battle?" I love your videos man keep up the good work! :D
...Well, that was a *cut* above the rest. It's good to know that most of the Marvel fanboys didn't *lose their heads*. Especially considering that Raiden *ripped* Wolverine a new one. Really, that fighting was *animalistic*.
Ris, while Raiden is in his Jack the Ripper state, he has no regard for his pain what so ever. And with Wolverine, if you were to cut his brain stem he'd die. Also great points on why Wolverine had the upper hand. Have a swell day
I kinda had a feeling Wolverine was going to lose before I knew who his opponent was. I mean, Wolverine has a reputation of being unkillable. So, it meant he would face an opponent that could potentially get through his healing factor and adamantium.
Hercule is pretty much the idiot of the Dragon Ball Z series. He's tried to fight some of the Z fighter's foes claiming to be the strongest human in the world. He's constantly humiliated, but manages to keep his title. He actually becomes useful playing a key role is defeating Majin Buu, but that's a whole nother story
El Capitan I was being sarcastic because Yamcha is seen in the community as the worst character due to his lack of conviction and the fact that he's the weakest Z fighter
+Ris Grestar Kind late to the party here, but to answer your concern, Ris, over how Raiden knew to hit Wolverine's neck and brain. In the games, his visor has the function of scanning enemy body structures and highlighting weak points. Not just structural weak spots; it scans the entire form, essentially figures out how it works, and then uses that information to let Raiden know where to hit. So even if Wolverine's neck and skull weren't structurally weak compared to the rest of his body, after REPEATEDLY seeing the healing factor in action, his auto-targeting system would have likely figured out that it was "stemming" from his brain, and highlighted that area for Raiden to take out.
The guy voicing Wolverine in this is 23 years old. I honestly thought he was in his 40s when I heard some of his voices, the Smash Announcer being one of them.
"raiden has been a trainer killer since he was 10 but wolverine has been fighting for years" yeah...Wolverine has been fighting HUMANS, where Raiden has been cleveing apart massive fkn mechs...why didnt they point that out???
Now to be fair, in the animation, Raiden pretty much spent the entire time trying to slice and dice Wolverine, with every attempt failed. And fun fact: Wolverine here was voiced by Xander Mobus, who not only also voiced Robocop and Lion-O in death battle, but he's also the announcer...IN...SMASH!
While in Ripper mode pain does the opposite of inhibit Raiden, it actually makes him stronger as he feeds off of it. So that point aint no good in the hood fellas.
For the record, Raiden doesn't have a blade on his feet, he throws his sword, attaches the handle to his foot, and kicks the blade a people, and it's a stupid as it sounds.
Funny, Thor has trouble breaking it? Well at one point in the comics, Thor effortlessly broke open adamantium bindings. (www.comicbookmovie.com/fansites/KingAvengerMarvel/news/?a=47839) Strength: .12Also, definitely more Dart.And it was planned to be Wolverine VS Freddy Krueger (Nightmare) or Vega (Street Fighter) or Baraka (Mortal Kombat) or The Shredder (I'm sure you know). Also love how Wolverine's healing is SO overpowered that the bus heals itself after he goes beserk
One of the things they should have brought up is that Raiden can carry a handful of nanopaste cells that he can use to instantly heal his wounds. This are sorta a backup for when he can't just steal electrolytes from enemy cyborgs. He also can carry extra fuel cells, which I am going to just assume he was using throughout the battle to maintain his energy. But more than that, Raiden is actually super durable. In his older, worse cyborg body he cut off his own arm to free himself from rubble, to then go and stop a freaken ship from crushing Snake, while you know, missing an arm. He then later lost that same arm in the begining of Metal Gear Rising (thus why he said "not again" when he lost his arm here) and his eye (one of the few non-cyborg parts he had), and still lasted several minutes before losing consciousness. That was again his old cyborg body. Then with his new one he survived being punched repeatedly by a roided out US Senator whose nananomachines meant he could punch with enough for to make things explode. Finally we have the issue with losing his arm and being stabbed through the chest, where you said you'd think that would slow him down. Well, in the game the first time he ever goes into Ripper Mode was after being stabbed through the chest with a sword. Raiden then proceeds to deactivate his pain inhibitors (causing the pain to get *much* worse), violently rips the sword out of his chest, then immediately goes on to brutally murder some enemy cyborgs in the cutscene at 13:46. If that wasn't enough, he then fights a long, difficult boss battle against a cyborg with magnet powers, all while still having a hole in his chest where he'd been run through with a sword like a minute before. In the end the fact is that Raiden is well over 500 times as strong as Wolverine, and I stress the OVER since that was his old body that was at least 500 times as strong. While Wolverine has fought people that strong before, like the Hulk, they generally don't have a speed advantage and way to cut adamantite.
You know, the thing about the Murasama being in Wolwerine's arsenal; I think it was a fail from Screw Attack. Or maybe there is actaully a version of the Murasama (without the HF technology) on Earth 616 and Wolwerine just so happens to have it. But why would he even need it in the first place? Which is why I think it's just something they forgot to fix before uploading the vid. Proving that this kind of thing can happen to everybody.
Raiden after his second cybernectic operation is basicly only organic from the top of the head to the upper jaw the rest of his body is totaly cyberetic
One Minute Melee doesn't do heavy research on the combatants, and is only meant to be for fun. If it is Dan that goes against Hercule I hope it's 3D to fully show the glory of The Champ.
ahed jehad Hercule is an incredibly impressive fighter. The only reason he's comedic relief in Dragon Ball is because the main characters are so far beyond normal humans. Hercule beat other martial artists of regular human skill and power, and also fought the sort of people seen in the original Dragon Ball who used more exotic techniques. Dan on the other hand is portrayed as a wimp compared to even normal human fighters, let alone the more well known characters such as Ryu or Blanka.
well, that maybe so, but Dan can be tough when he has to be. sure, his gadoken has a super-short range, but how good is your gadoken? exactly. he also has his own version of raging demon, but it's the opposite of Akuma's raging demon. plus, Dan TRAINED Blanka how to fight. so he has some merit to show. plus, i think there's more to Dan Hibiki than we may know.
I have watched ALL your Death Battle reactions now for the longest time I predicted more correctly but now you are winning by 1 however I did predict that the only way Raiden would only win if the blade could cut through Wolverine's skull.
You know, I praised this Death Battle for showing that they actually did research but one thing that was on the back of my mind, and that another comment made me think about, was that not all Adamantium is the same so would it really matter that Artic Vibranium can go through one version of it? The comment that made me think this said that Wolverine's Adamantium is immune to it's molecular bond being tampered with, just short of reality warpers and Magneto who can control all metal so if that is true then the ending wouldn't work but it's solely a comment so I'd have to look it up myself. In all honesty, Raiden had more advantages than Wolverine, but it wouldn't matter much if he couldn't put him down permanently so if the HF wouldn't affect Wolverine's Adamantium, then well...Wolverine is going to win in the long run. It doesn't change my opinion that this was made pretty well, and it shows they were trying to actually see if something could get through Adamantium but even not having an Encyclopedic knowledge of comics, I am aware, via the wiki, that there are different forms of Adamantium so it's possible that this outcome couldn't happen. Despite this, keeping someone dead for a considerable amount of time still counts as a win if we look at RD vs Starscream so if people are accurate in their statement that Wolverine's joints don't have Adamantium, then Raiden could cut off his head and keep him dead for a while even if he can't destroy his bones because if we look at Deadpool Kills the Marvel Universe, Deadpool cut his head off and stated that even with that he'd live, but it'd take forever for him to heal from that, would still take him out of the fight long enough for Raiden to win so even discounting the possibility that Raiden couldn't get through his bones, if he could cut off his head, and if it takes a while for Wolverine to heal from that, it still counts as a win.
+Ris Grestar HIS SWORD CAN CUT THROUGH ANITHING BE LUCKY THEY DON'T EQUIPPED HIM WITH GRAY FOX BLADE !!!! He have multiple HF sword, he Obatin the muramasa during the final boss....Adamantium have weakness against electromùagnetic energy, and weapon cappble of mass molecular level destruction can cut through adamantium.....
Something they never talked about was the codec. He could commune with other people who could have scanned wolverine and found out that he could heal everything other than the brain. Or that he is a cyborg with possible scanning technology abilities himself
Reason Raiden wasn't fazed by the lacking arm is because he used his sword without any arms once, using his feet. This was after he became a cyborg. That's also what he did at the part where Dart asked if his feet were blades too: He just held the sword in one foot and used that to cut up Wolverine.
28:00 People were complaining about that similar thing with Kid Buu as well. Some say he could regenerate even after disintegration by coming too close to the sun.
Buy regenerated from Vapor before. Buu could've just ripped his arm off or something and thrown it to the side while in the trip to the sun. Come on think about it
You know in the animation it did show Raiden cutting through several parts of Wolverine's bod an given that part at the end when wolvi was just cut the hell out of, don't you think he would have cut through several vital organs, it would make you think that he would go for the head and destroy it because he's seen the healing factor and would think he could just heal it. It was for Raiden to make sure he died or test if he could.
In case you didn’t know, Raiden can use his sword with his feet. His feet in his exoskeleton armor can grip the sword handle and use it like that. He also did so once his arms were severed.
awesome death battle reaction and i got to say even if it was odd that when Raiden decapetaded wolverine he sliced up the head but im guessing he just did that cause well in the riper mode he just goes all out, and even if he did leave the head, wolverine would still be dead because he wont be capable to regen his body in time before his brain dies off, we got to remember this is wolverine his regeneration isnt as good as deadpools, but beside that the battke was preatty good
The explanation for why Wolverine could regrow in the skeleton situation was that his brain was still intact inside his skull... which is actually rather stupid, as his brain should have been vaporised too due to the holes that just exist in a skull, but hey, that is more sloppy writing than anything.
Hey Ris I just wanna tell you Raiden has pain inhibitors so he doesn't feel pain, he was once hit by a boat and survived and he was able to cut through indestructible nanomachines (son!) with his muramasa so that should clear up your questions :)
The reason writing always chops limbs is because he avoids cutting the androids power sources which is in their spine and sometimes things in their hand or arm
I was never too familiar with either character; I've only heard of Wolverine (just because he's that well known) and seen him in one X-Men movie so with that in mind, I had a feeling ScrewAttack would do what I thought was predictable: show Wolverine winning but I'm glad the results proved me wrong. Plus, after the descriptions (before the actual death battle), I've come to like Raiden better since he's closer to my kind of character than Wolverine. And that Murasama tho! Damn that thing looks badass! Sleak red katana that could cut through anything--it's awesome shit! As for Hercule Satan, I have seen him in DBZ on many episodes but I still don't know too much about him other than that he's a joke character in the series. And a little bit of his interaction with Majin Buu.
I believe I've heard (don't know myself personally) that Death Battle has actually gone back on this one on the grounds that Misty Knight's abilities can melt Secondary Adamantium, not Primary Adamantium (or Beta Adamantium which is the same as Primary Adamantium in what it's capabilities are). Secondary Adamanium is much weaker than Beta Adamantium, and has been damaged by several things in the past (like Thor), but to my knowledge, Primary Adamantium or Wolverine's Beta Adamanitum has never been damaged by anything ever. Not my words. I've been told that Death Battle stated that they made a mistake in a live-stream after the battle was posted. I haven't seen it, and I'd love to know if anyone can confirm this. Either way, I think it's a worthwhile consideration. I don't know enough to confirm myself.
Wolverine's adamantium has been damaged and destroyed multiple times. The whole katana-ninja story arc proves that it can take just a simple katana with a specific vibration frequency to slice through his bones like butter. He's able to somehow regrow his adamantium bone casing after his claws were sliced off, but that takes much longer to grow back than the bones themselves. But back to my point: his adamantium has been crushed, melted, broken, sliced, and otherwise forcefully altered multiple times in the past. Raiden's sword is essentially the same katana used in the aforementioned story arc to slice through Wolverine's adamantium, but, like, hundreds of times more powerful. That should definitely be enough to take down Logan, and particularly quicker than the Death Battle showed.
Delsin Rowe I have never seen this occur before, except in movies or the Ultimate universe, Magneto who is very specifically special, and cosmic level beings like on Odin's level so. I've never seen this sword that can cut through him that you are describing (sounds like what happened in the Wolverine movie with Silver Samurai, but maybe that was based on a comic that I missed). I'd love to get some sources on this, because 1) I've never seen it, and 2) if it were a well known thing, you'd think that Death Battle would have used that instead of the Misty Knight thing.
Raiden's only organic parts are his jaw up. Everything else can literally function as long as it's intact. Being impaled isn't a big deal for him as long as he's still in once piece.
Ris! I want to know what you think about Pokemon Go! Do a reaction video or something? Its going to be HUGE for nintendo if they pull it off :D or just reply thats cool too
I think that Raiden didn't have to know about destroying Wolverine's brain to kill him for sure. He's doing that with every enemy he's been fighting with throughout the whole metal gear rising
I think the Death Battle story is, Raiden was getting paid, based on how many of those mooing robots he destroyed, and Wolverine was interfering with that, and possibly, any other mission Raiden had. It was rude of Raiden to start off talking like that, but that's my guess. Maybe he had a long day. Maybe Rose and his son was kidnapped, to force him to go on this mission, or maybe, he was angry at another evil business, because I think at the end of Revengence, he became a rogue cyborg, and started hunting other evil, inhumane businesses & people.
Wolverine's first appearance was indeed battling the hulk in one issue of the hulk comics. Common misconception leads people to believe he was an x-men since his first debut.
Just so you know Raiden isn't wearing a suit his entire body from the jaw down is replaced by machinery only his head excluding the metal jaw and spine are still intact
If Raiden wasn't in the ripper mode he probably would have just walked away after cutting off his head but because of the ripper mode, its pretty much all about killing and slaughter so it makes since he chopped the head to pieces.
well, i guess Raiden's win was pretty iron-clad. it's too bad that Wolverine didn't get his point done. i guess Raiden ripped Wolverine a new one. and while this fight was crazy and brutal in the end, it's a no-brainer that Raiden's weapon is sharp enough to cut through butter. i guess even disarming Raiden wasn't enough to make Raiden weaker.
