King (born August 15, 1975) is the name of two different characters in the Tekken fighting game series, both of whom fight in the style of
luchadores from Mexico. Both versions of the character wear a jaguar mask that totally hides their heads in matches. The character was inspired by both legendary Japanese pro wrestler
Tiger Mask, as well as Mexican wrestler
Fray Tormenta, a Catholic priest who became a masked wrestler in order to support an orphanage. King does not speak, per se. Instead, he makes growls and snarls in the manner of a jaguar, which are translated into English subtitles at the bottom of the screen. Interestingly, other characters do not have a problem understanding King, and converse with him as though he was speaking naturally.
