Ring Ka King (transl. King of the Ring) is an Indian professional wrestling television series that was originally broadcast from January 2012 to April 2012 by Endemol India on Colors TV, consisting of 26 episodes.[1] Filming for the series began in December 2011.[2][3]
The series was heavily affiliated with the American Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA) promotion, using some of its personnel and performers.[4] However, due to the existing Indian television broadcasting obligations TNA had with Star Sports at the time, the Ring Ka King series could not contain any references to the "TNA" name.[5] The "Ring Ka King" name is owned outright by Endemol India.[6][7]

History
In 2011, TNA Entertainment announced an affiliate project in India, later revealing it to be an original televised wrestling program series intended for the Indian market, titled Ring Ka King.[8] Endemol India were in charge of the project, placing TNA founder Jeff Jarrett as director of the series, with Dave Lagana, Sonjay Dutt and Jeremy Borash as producers.[9] Savio Vega and Nick Dinsmore were responsible for training the Indian talent at Ohio Valley Wrestling.[10]
Ring Ka King was taped in India, and featured both Indian and non-Indian wrestlers performing on the show. A majority of the non-Indian wrestlers were under contract with TNA; this included Zema Ion, Scott Steiner, and Abyss, among others. There were also independent wrestlers such as Sonjay Dutt, Isaiah Cash and American Adonis that were featured in the series.[11]
