Zangief is a
Russian wrestler known as "The Red Cyclone". He impressed the president of the (then) USSR, Gorbachev, so much that
he was hired by the government and soon became a national hero. Under orders
from Gorbachev, Zangief was sent to combat the forces of Shadaloo, which is
beginning to spread its corruption into Russia. Zangief encountered many
fighters along the way, and ended up befriending a few of them, such as E.
Honda and
R. Mika.
After he was defeated in the second World Warrior Tournament, he returned to
training in the Russian wilderness, wrestling bears. Eventually, he was
approached by the largest wrestling organization in the world with an eye to
signing the "Red Cyclone" to their promotion. Zangief declined at
first, and said that he is less interested in money than he is in bringing honor
to Russia by demonstrating Russian strength. He is promised a stage to better
showcase his skills, with his matches watched by millions. Due to the obvious
help this will bring to his will to show Russian strength, Zangief accepted.
Years later, Zangief entered the World Tournament held by S.I.N. to prove to his
young fans (some of whom are beginning to claim that martial artists are better)
that he's still got it.
