Blocking a grab isn't actually possible in Mortal Kombat X; you need to tech it by pressing the correct buttons just as your opponent grabs you. Try pressing throw escape (L1/LB) right when you think they're going to grab you.
To block a grab in Mortal Kombat X, you gotta tech it! When your opponent goes for a grab, quickly press the front punch (X on PS4, A on Xbox) and front kick (Circle on PS4, B on Xbox) simultaneously to break free. Timing's everything, so get your practice in!
Honestly, I never manage to tech those grabs. Just keep practicing!
