Felice Herrig is adamant Mortal Kombat used her likeness for one of its playable characters in the popular video game, as "Lil' Bulldog" claims "Cassie Cage" could very well be based on her looks and traits.

Selfies and all.

She expanded earlier this afternoon (via FOX Sports) on her curious position:

"I don't think it's a coincidence. There's too many factors and components for it just to be a coincidence. There's the images that are the exact same photos I've done in photoshoots and they're the exact same poses used for Cassie Cage's character. Not only just the likeness but when you see her finishing move which is blowing the bubble gum and putting it on the guy's face and then her other finishing move is taking a selfie. I definitely believe they used my likeness. I think that Cassie Cage is 100-percent me."

Had someone working for the video game at NetherRealm Studios, a division of Warner Bros., asked Herrig for permission to use her likeness, "Lil' Bulldog" would have okay'd it in a heartbeat. But since they didn't, it's bittersweet seeing her digital twin on screen with not a paycheck from the creator to show for it.

"Who doesn't want to be a bad ass in a video game? Or a superhero in a movie? It's definitely cool and if they would have came to me and said 'hey can we use your image and your likeness in a video game as Cassie Cage?' I would be more excited. It's hard to get excited because yeah it's an honor and it's exciting, but they're making a lot of money off that video game."

And while she didn't divulge too much information, Herrig claims "her people" are digging deeper to see if they have a case and reason to pursue further action, which could mean a potential court battle in the future.

"I've had my people looking into it right now. So that's probably as much as I can say about it."

On the surface, it appears Herrig might have a solid circumstantial case. One that would likely reward her way more than anything she accomplishes inside the Octagon this weekend against Paige VanZant at UFC on FOX 15 ... and beyond.
