Character Trivia

King is active on the pro wrestling circuit, and he also manages an orphanage on the side. The war between G Corporation and the Mishima Zaibatsu has ravaged the world, causing an unprecedented swell in the number of children needing his help. King may be the undisputed champion of the wrestling world, but he will need to put on a spectacle far beyond the bright arena lights if he is to earn the funds required to help all those orphans. ?
