King

The money that was won by the original King was the only source of income of the orphanage. When King was killed the orphanage was bankrupt. One of the former orphans took the mask of King and started entering championships to earn some money, but every fight he was in he lost. It was because he didn't receive any training and only imitated moves he saw King perform in the ring.

With time he met Armor King, who sought him out to see for himself if there were an actual new King. They became friends and Armor King thought the young man how to fight. Four years later the man became a great wrestler known as The Second King.

With the third King Of Iron Fist Tournament announced Armor King informs the new King, that an entity known as Ogre is responsible for the death of the original King. The new King enters the tournament to avenge his foster-father's death.

Two years later King learned, that Armor King was killed. The man responsible was Craig Marduk. Craig was arrested and held in a prison in Arizona. King send a bribe so that Craig would get released. He also sends a plane ticket and a paper clipping about the fourth King Of Iron Fist Tournament as a challenge to Craig.

King met and beat Craig. Craig was hospitalized and while he was unconscious in his bed King came to the hospital to finish what he started. King raised his hand to give Craig the final blow, but saw a picture of Craig's family on the table. He realized, that he was on a wrong path and left.

Soon Craig started fights wearing a jaguar mask, just like Armor King wore. He challenged King to fight him again in the fifth King Of Iron Fist Tournament. King couldn't let Craig get away with an insult to his master and joined the tournament. He fought Craig once again and beat him, but while fighting they found out, that they had much in common and became good friends.

After the tournament King found out, that Craig was attacked in the waiting room. But what really drove King to anger, is that the attacked looked just like Armor King. To find out who the mysterious fighter is King enters the sixth King Of Iron Fist Tournament with Craig.
