Cobra Kai
Warning!
Spoilers for Cobra Kai season 6, part 3 ahead!
The crossover becomes even more meaningful considering the clear parallels between theRockyandKarate Kidmovies.
The Karate KidandRockyare franchises of the same general breed.
Additionally,The Karate Kidmoviesare directed by John G. Avildsen, who also directed the first and fourthRockymovies.
Daniel’sRockyreference was really a reminder that it had always been okay that Johnny lost back in 1984.
Of course, this didn’t stop Johnny from wanting to beatSensei Wolf inCobra Kaiseason 6.
In a way, this, too, is a reference toRocky.
The fact thatCobra Kaiused this song to showcase Johnny and Daniel’s newfound teamwork is both ironic and heartwarming.

However,“You’re the Best” also had significance following Daniel’sRockyreference.
TheRockymovies are available to rent or buy on Apple TV.
Stallone turned the song down, but his pal Avildsen claimed it forThe Karate Kid.
