TJ Combo

TJ Combo is a character from the Killer Instinct series. He will appear in the upcoming 81st episode of DEATH BATTLE!, Balrog VS TJ Combo, where he'll face off against his rival, Balrog from the Street Fighter series. He will be voiced by Gabriel Kunda.

History
Tyler-Johnson Garret worked his way up from a shabby backstreet gym to the heavyweight champion of the world for five straight years. However, he lost his title and all his fame, wealth and respect when the Ultratech surgeon that gave him titanium arm implants, to insure that Combo remained the champion, sold his story.

Determined to regain fame and glory, Combo striped himself of his cybernetic implants and joined the Killer Instinct tournament hosted by Ultratech. There, he got hospitalized after barely killing Riptor and, after his release from the hospital, swore vengeance against Ultratech.
