No, Cole Young was a mistake, and them taking him out or sidelining him would be correcting that mistake. Cole beating Goro was straight-up bad writing, given it was because Cole's power was literally plot armor. It made Goro look weak and Cole look cheap. Their best bet to salvage the situation is making it clear that it wasn't Goro that was defeated. After all, as I , that character wasn't referred to as "Goro", and there are an entire race of Shokans in MK's universe, so...

Anyway, Cole needs to go. That character was a bad idea back when he was "Cole Turner". A whole spectrum of characters to pick from, and they decide to create a boring MMA bro, then waste a perfectly talented actor with that role in the process.
