The King of Iron Fist Tournament

IntroductionEdit

The King of Iron Fist Tournament (ザ・キング・オブ・アイアンフィストトーナメント Za Kingu obu Airon Fisuto Tōnamento) is a fictional world-wide martial arts competition that is held infrequently and is hosted by the Mishima Zaibatsu. It draws renowned fighters from all around the globe, with the prize generally being control of the company offered to the victor (who then is free to host the next King of Iron Fist tournament).
