How come King Mauler didn’t see that coming since he should have the memory of killing himself from a previous cloning process

I mean... I'm not surprised. The Mauler ego is what keeps them in check, and the fact that they're "disposable" as well. Like sure, the Maulers have killed each other previously multiple times- so of course they know it's a possibility. However it still never fails for one Mauler to kill the other.

He said it himself in S1, it only works if neither of them know who's the original, by design. "King" mauler should have known it would never work
