Midway doesn't have to go out and say it, that's what feats are for. Since Midway has never stated that if you pump four clips of Assault rifle bullets unto Johnny Cages brain he will die, does that mean that he won't die?
Doing what fast? I have the game, though from what I remember of the intro, Kabal was running with his super speed (shortly after the pyramid arose) if that counts as "fast" by your definition.
That's an attack. A quick burst of speed. Not overall running speed.
Low tier huh? Mind posting this "MK tier list" ? 🙄
Ask Satsujin, he has the eir listing. But I can ensure you that the top tiers consist of people like Shao Kaon, Lei Kang, Shang Tsung all the big boys.
Every circumstance? In that case, might as well not play video games anymore and have cutscenes on youtube be my only way of placing judgement on a character in VS threads.
That's exactly how things work here. If you can not show a canon cutscene or canon scan from a comic to back up your point then your point is false until proven. Gameplay and game mechanics never count. If you don't like it, leave.
By "cutscenes > gameplay" though, if ya'll mean that gameplay can't be used as a way of determining something about a character against another character (like his/her speed), then to hell with that equation.
As I said before, if you don't like it then leave.

I go to that forum whenever I need a good laugh.

The only thing that was said concerning canon and non-canon stuff was "I leave this solely up to the decision of the thread-starter. I do expect people to adhere to the decision made for that particular thread", and as far as this thread goes, batdude never specified whether non-canon stuff could be applied or not.

But that doesn't mean I can't dislike certain things about it.

Very well then.
A comic huh? I can think of some MK comics (or parts of them) made by the MK developers that involve Cage to post (that is if I can find 'em on google or something), but do I really need to just to prove he can beat an unarmed Wesker? 😛
That was never stated in the rules, so I guess you or someone else are making up your own.

Me leave KMC? You're out of your mind. It's one of my most favorite places on the freakin' net. I'm never leavin'.
Too lazy to quote everything 😛
1.har har!
2.Uh.. dunno.
3. It's more of an implied thing, because in most cases things you can do game mechanics wise, the character either can or can not really do. Example being the fact that in Mortal Kombat in the actual game, when you fight, a character can be frozen by Sub-Zero, but when Sub-Zero punches him the guy doesn't shatter into a million pieces.. the ice just falls off. Yet, when he does his fatality, even though he does the exact same move the outcome is different; the opponent getting fatalities shatters into a million pieces. But fatalities and cutscenes are both more accurate showings of what one can do.
4. Fair enough 😛

Albert Wesker could beat Johnny Cage for several reasons:
1.Albert Wesker has shown healing capabilites like healing burns from his face in a short amount of time. He was also IMPALED in the chest by a tyrant and healed that too.
2.Wesker has shown in Code Veronica RE4 & Umbrella Chronicles that he has abilities that Johnny Cage Doesn't have like jumping over buildings and 90 feet off the ground.
3.Wesker is WAY freaking smarter then Cage, so he could easily outwit him.
4.Wesker has shown that he is skilled in close combat like his Chikyo Kick. As good as Cage is a fighter, he's an actor. Wesker is a professional killer with way better reflexes then Cage's.(Although Johnny's Shadow Kick could match Wesker's Palm Thrust.
and as for that one thing about Wesker having Chris fight Alexia, Wesker left Chris to fight her because he thought she would be too tough for him to beat. So I think that Wesker's one major weakness is his overconfidence and underestimating his opponents.

Johnny regularly fights gods and beings with mystical powers. Plus, he has the shadow kick and his plasma balls.
Johnny doesn't regularly fight gods. The only gods shown so far in the MK universe are Raiden, Fujin, and Shinnok. Raiden and Fujin are Cage's allies so he wouldn't fight him so that leaves only Shinnok who in my opinion sucks. Cage didn't do anything outstanding in MK, he was killed in MK3 and again in Deadly Alliance. Johnny's kick is about the same as Wesker's Palm Thrust, and he could just dodge Cage's plasma balls
