Profile
General:
King is a pro wrestler
from Mexico with mysterious leopard mask. Armor
King, King’s mentor and foster father, was dead. King pledged on Armor
King’s grave that he would seek revenge against the man responsive for
his mentor’s death. The man was currently serving time in an Arizona State
Penitentiary. With the money he saved from professional wrestling tournaments,
King arranged for the murderer’s release from prison and sent him a plane
ticket. With his plans in motion, King headed for the Tournament to await
his sworn enemy, the Vale Tudo fighter - Craig.
Supposedly, the King from Tekken and Tekken 2 is a different King from
the one in Tekken 3 through Tekken 5: DR.
King’s friendship with Craig Marduk developed during the King of Iron Fist Tournament 5. At the end of the previous tournament, King caught wind of an attack upon Craig. He blew a gasket when he heard the assailant looked exactly like Armor King. "Who in the hell would do such a tasteless imitation?!” King said. King was determined to learn the true identity of Craig’s attacker. During that time, King heard the King of Iron Fist Tournament 6 would soon be held. He decided to enter the tournament with Craig.

Comment:
King has always
stood out in his series as the trademark wrestler and he's a cool tribute
to Mexican wrestling. His moves have developed over and over again throughout
the series, and he now has some of the smoothest, and most brutal, wrestling
moves around. He's also a blast to use! RAAAWWRR!!!! How does he make those
noises anyway? He's... not a real leopard.
