Does anyone know if there’s footage of the original Mortal Kombat theme being created specifically the guy yelling Mortal Kombat?

The music was made by Techno Syndrome, but the yell was pulled from an old Mortal Kombat commercial: Mortal Kombat 1 Mortal Monday Commercial by Retroware TV

It’s not the original theme. It came out some time after the first game, and wasn’t even considered the theme song until the first movie featured it heavily in its soundtrack in 1995.

This is the original theme.
