Richard the Lionheart was prominently involved in several key battles during the Third Crusade (1189-1192). Notably, he led the Siege of Acre, where the Crusaders captured the city from Saladin's forces in 1191. He also fought in the Battle of Arsuf, achieving a significant victory against Saladin's army. These battles were critical in establishing Richard's reputation as a formidable military leader during the crusade.
Richard the Lionhart was born 8th September 1189 ~ first Crusade was between 1095-1099 so he was not even born.

Japan, China, Sweden and Egypt. :)
The First and Third Crusades share common goals of reclaiming Jerusalem and the Holy Land from Muslim control, driven by a mix of religious fervor and political motivation. Both campaigns were marked by significant battles and shifting alliances among European powers and local factions. Additionally, each crusade saw the involvement of prominent leaders, such as Godfrey of Bouillon in the First Crusade and Richard the Lionheart in the Third. Despite their differing outcomes, both crusades reflected the enduring conflict between Christian and Muslim forces during the medieval period.
The First Crusade was the only successful Crusade.

Well, really there isn't a particular reason, if indeed this is a colloquial reference for the Third Crusade that I'm not aware of then it is probably, as a previous person answered,"Because the kind of England Richard the Lion Heart (Richard the III) lead his army himself during the holy crusades."However, I think you may be getting confused; I would reference the Second Crusade as the Kings' Crusade because this was the first time that royalty had been on crusade - partially due to the king of France - Philip I - having been excommunicated shortly before the events of the First Crusade.Hope that helps!
