Very possible, but unless that King was Merlin, you might have to revise the theory. Didn't Rumple say the Chernabog was placed there by Merlin last season? I might be wrong, I haven't seen the episode in forever. Aside from all of that, the theory is pretty solid. And even the whole "True Love actually made Storybrooke look better than the Underworld" part sounds solid... If it weren't for the fact that it was re-cast in Season 3 and Storybrooke returned the same... Though to be fair, Regina cast the curse in a different way (cauldron rather than fire) so it could've made up for the lack of True Love?
