An intrepid Mortal Kombat 1 fan has revealed what looks like a discarded Brutality that sees DLC character Omni-Man kill his opponent with his moustache.
Mortal Kombat modder and reverse engineer thethiny revealed evidence of an Omni-Man moustache Brutality last month, but without an input command, the community couldn’t work out how to trigger it in-game.
Now, Mortal Kombat dataminer Interloko has revealed animations for this moustache Brutality, which is certainly one of the more bizarre moves found within Mortal Kombat 1 so far.
Here's the first look at Omni-Man's Mustache Brutality found by @thethiny

In Interloko’s video we see animations for Omni-Man pushing his opponent away before ripping off his moustache, which flies through the air to attack and kill. We also see animations for Omni-Man’s hapless victim as they succumb to the moustache attack. And we even see an animation for the moustache moving in the air.
Interestingly, it seems this Brutality depends upon another unused special move: one that kills your Kameo character. Currently, this isn’t possible in Mortal Kombat 1. But thethiny found reference to an Omni-Man move that would do exactly that, and Interloko found unused animations for it. The animations show Omni-Man grabbing his Kameo, holding them in front of him, and using them as a human shield to absorb attacks. Animations were also found for Omni-Man discarding his Kameo, throwing them forwards or backwards. Omni-Man is then unable to call in his Kameo.
Is this another discarded idea from NetherRealm, or something coming in a future update? Similarly,
