Kenneth Layne (born July 22, 1981) is an American professional wrestler, better known by his ring name, Kenny King. He is best known for his time with Ring of Honor (ROH) and Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA) / Impact Wrestling.[1]
After participating in the reality show WWE Tough Enough in 2002, Layne began a career in professional wrestling as Kenny King. From 2005 to 2006, he wrestled for TNA. In 2007, he began to work with ROH, where he teamed with Rhett Titus as the All Night Express, winning the ROH World Tag Team Championship. In 2012, King left ROH to rejoin TNA, where he won the TNA X Division Championship twice. In 2015, King returned to ROH, where he won the ROH World Television Championship two times and the ROH World Tag Team Championship twice more (with Dragon Lee as part of La Facción Ingobernable). In 2022, King again returned to TNA (since renamed Impact Wrestling) as part of the stable Honor No More, winning the Impact Digital Media Championship. He left Impact Wrestling once again in October 2023.
