Sylvester Stallone is back as Rambo! Kind of. Rambo has been added to the new Mortal Kombat game.
I think they should do a Mortal Kombat game with only Sylvester Stallone characters. You could have Rambo, and Cobra, and Hawk from Over The Top… and the final boss could be Sly’s mom from Stop! Or My Mom Will Shoot!
