This page describes Wujing as a sand-dragon, which I don't think is accurate. In all the translations I've read he's just a water monster; the only animal I've read him being related to is a shark. Describing a Japanese Kappa as a dragon is also a big stretch. Also, the Mortal Kombat character seems to have no relationship to Wujing, as he is neither fat nor a drunkard. Maybe the editor was thinking of Chu Pachieh/Wuneng (Pigsy).

AFAIK, he was only a human-based Yaoguai.

- I agree whole-heartedly to the above. Sha Wu Jing is a water demon, not based on any animal whatsoever.


IMPORTANT: The reason I am adding links and not content is because the Wikipedia format does NOT allow me to organize the information in a manner that will make it much more easier for readers to read and comprehend. It is also useful if readers just want to skim through the upper parts to get to the information they want.
