10 Best Video Game Wrestlers (And Who Would Sign Them In Real Life)
2. King And Armour King (Tekken) - SmackDown Live
Arguably the greatest fictional tag team in gaming, King and Armour King have been mainstays of the Tekken franchise since the first release in 1995. Whilst King has always been the main man (his armored buddy is usually unlock-able) the duo have represented wrestling throughout the history of the King of Iron Fist. Best utilised in Tekken Tag Tournament (2000) and its 2012 sequel, both are capable of combos familiar to all wrestling fans: power-bombs, suplexes, Russian leg sweeps, hurricanranas, and DDTs make up the repertoire.
You would expect promotions to sign up the Kings as a unit. The Iconic leopard mask's marketing potential and history of successful franchise releases would mean serious money to acquire their services - not to mention star power the WWE would never ignore. Looking at the current tag divisions, the better matches would likely come from SmackDown. With New Day dominating on RAW, the red brand would have to put the Kings in a key spot but in contrast there is an abundance of enhancements to run through on team blue (Vaudevillains, Hype Bros, Ascencion, Breezango etc) before potential feuds with The Usos, American Alpha or The Wyatt Family.
The Kings would be multiple time tag team champions before an eventual split. After an intense feud, King would vanquish his older ally. Multiple mid card title reigns would be on the horizon for both, but King would be a main event player and a top title run would be likely in his long-term future.
