Profile

General:
Zangief was a wrestler who impressed the president of the then USSR, Gorbachev, so much that he was hired by the government as a national hero. He became known as the Red Cyclone and was sent to fight the threat of Shadaloo. He didn't do much in SFA3 though, except meeting Mika. He is kind of strange. He also hates projectile attacks but he likes Ryu.

Comment:
An unforgettable veteran of the original Street Fighter cast... And he's only gotten bigger and badder from sequel to sequel. Gotta love the gief.
