hi my name is king
Another inspiration? ...[]
I'm not sure about all that stuff about the "Tiger Mask" wrestler character... but I did notice something else which is too uncanny to be coincidence.
In the manga 3x3 Eyes, the character Benares (a rather muscular guy) hides his identity for a while beneath a Jaguar mask and goes by the name Kin-Kara. And unless I'm much mistaken, 3x3 Eyes predates Tekken. This might be itself a reference to that old Tiger Mask thing... but I couldn't find any reference to Jaguars on the Wikipedia page for that... SO I suspect that 3x3 Eyes might have had SOME influence on King's character.

Biography[]
When I was working on King's biography, I saw some variations in unofficial sources, but I could not find any official sources to adapt the article accurately from. I have doubts about some details, such as the death of a child in King's care, as the biography in my copy of the game does not mention it. That said though, the biographies in my copy are very short and don't say much at all, so I have left it in for now. If anyone could provide a link to an accurate, reliable source so that we can ensure the biography is accurate, It would be a great help! Dark Shackle (talk) 04:06, November 25, 2017 (UTC)
