Balrog made his debut in Street Fighter II: The World Warrior. Hailing from the slums of Las Vegas, Nevada. he rose through the ranks as a ruthless prizefighter that clawed his way to fame with sheer brutality and determination. However, Balrog’s greed and overall sadistic nature ultimately led him down a dark path of cheating and dirty tactics in the ring which lead to severe injuries and even death among his opponents, along with a steadfast ban from the world of professional boxing. This fall from grace made him a perfect recruit for the villainous terrorist organization Shadaloo, where he became the brutal enforcer of its leader, M. Bison.
