S3 Ep.15 “King of the Ring”

Plot:
As we could be able to predict from title card, episode is about wrestling. King Pig, biggest kid in Pig City, appear here as big fan of this sport, collecting related merchandise and especially beloving the mightiest El Porkador (finally his mask has a sense). He was able to make his own cosplay of him, even found a barrow. Then, King replaced his idol in last minute in battle against Muscle Pig (Hulk Pig in credits). After some seconds of weak shots, he was able to hit his opponent a bit stronger. Then, Hulk crushes King, El Pork made him a photo and finally he ended much hurt in the bed. In final scene, Minions are playing his own (hurt) plush, then King takes it and proudly place in Hall of Fame.

My opinion: Not worst ep., but rather not even in top 10. There aren’t much plot, as everything is about King entering Arena/get hurt in battle. None special gags here and predictable King happiness while he get his pain-occupied… something. (Royal Heist, The Porktrait etc.)

My notes: Goliath/Knight/”Don”/Muscle/Hulk Pig (all names of that pig from credits) is growing up with each episode. In “Hamshank Redemption” and “Brutal vs. Brutal” he was like 2x of middle sized bird (Chuck fe.). In “Sir Bomb of Hamelot” Bomb is only a bit smaller than him. (Exception.)
Then, in “Fistfull of Cabbage” he’s simillar size to El Pork, now he’s even bigger. Wow.

Backing to “Fist. of Cabbage” Hulk and ElPork were allies against King, now they were against themselves with King as ElPork’s fan. Very unconsistent.

In KP’s collection of toys, we can see a Blue Bird (remember A Pig’s Best Friend?), and wrestlers. Except ElPork and Hulk, we also see BatPig(?) and someone from Foreman’s family (himself?). Also, many, many Kings.

My rating 2.5/5, because it’s mostly nothing new.

Next, episode 16 for now is unknown, because coincidentally (again?) they post “EggsHaustion” (ep.18) instead. Another Chuck&Bomb story, but after “Mind the Pony” I’ll stay positive.

Another appearance fact: Anyone remember Chef Pig? Correct me if I’m wrong, but last episode he appeared was Cave Pig, S2 Ep.9. Right hand of the King (and only true villain) has appear less times than some random pigs.
