It’s the fight for the soul of the valley! Netflix has released a new teaser for Cobra Kai Season 4, which will see the return of the All Valley Karate Tournament. However, there is a lot more at stake this time than there were in Season 1.
The tournament has been a staple of the cinematic and tv series, dating back to 1984’s Karate Kid when Miyagi-do Karate’s Daniel LaRusso (Ralph Macchio) defeated Cobra Kai Dojo’s Johnny Lawrence (William Zabka) with an illegal crane kick to catapult him to greatness.
The only time the tournament was held in Cobra Kai was in Season 1. It saw Miguel Diaz (Xolo Maridueña) bring the trophy back home to Cobra Kai Dojo, defeating Miyagi-do Karate’s Robby Keene (Tanner Buchanan). In the seasons that have happened since, alliances have shifted, people have been hospitalized, and even hostile takeovers have ensued.
It all appears to lead to another epic clash at the All Valley Karate Tournament this December when Cobra Kai Season 4 premieres on Netflix. This time, the soul of the valley is on the line.
