However, King lost in the tournament, and resorted to teaching the orphans his fighting skills instead, as a means of self-defense. With the help of his friend, King fully recovered from his depression and alcoholism and trained intensely for the tournament, with the intention of winning the prize money to fund the orphanage. Armor King, worried for his friend, sought him out and helped him get his life back on track, and persuaded him to resume training for a second King of Iron Fist tournament.
He took to the streets, stumbling around in a drunken stupor. King turned to drink, and the death of a child in his care pushed him to breaking point.

King has won many titles since, whilst the injury caused Armor King's career to plummet. Early in his career King accidentally crushed the eye of Armor King during a match. It was at this time that King came to the attention of his future rival Armor King, one of a wrestling Tag Team who also wore Jaguar masks. To bring income to the orphanage, King fought in wrestling matches, donning his now iconic Jaguar mask to conceal his identity and acquiring the title "Beast Priest".
