Cobra Kai season 5 release date is not announced yet

&#8216;Cobra Kai&#8217; Season 5 Theory Hints at a Deepening Rivalry Between Tory and Sam

There are plenty of Cobra Kai theories surrounding season 5 taking rounds on the
internet. And one of the wildest theories suggests the return of Karate Kid 3
villain, Mike Barnes. But his appearance would mean the rivalry between Daniel
LaRusso’s daughter and Cobra Kai dojo’s best student would get even more heated.
Their rivalry worsened after Tory beat Sam in the All Valley Karate Tournament
in season 4. How will Barnes make it worse? Let’s find out.


WHO IS MIKE BARNES AND HOW DOES HIS APPEARANCE AFFECT THE DUO IN COBRA KAI
SEASON 5?

Mike Barnes, otherwise known as the Bad Boy Karate, is another villain from
Daniel’s past. They go 30 years back when Terry Silver recruited Mike to beat
LaRusso at the All Valley Karate Tournament. Barnes had almost snatched the
championship away from him. Now, years later, he may return as Tory’s father in
the series.

We still don’t have much information about Tony’s background. It’s still a
mystery. All we know so far is that she has a sick mother and a brother. But the
identity of her mother or father was never revealed. There are high chances that
the creators may introduce him as her father. This would mean history is
repeating for the LaRusso family. However, a double confrontation would up the
entertainment value of the show.

HOW CAN HE BE RORY’S FATHER?

Barnes being her father would make more sense because Tory’s father was never
revealed. Moreover, there are similarities between the two in appearance and
also their aggressive combat style. Could Mike have trained Tory as a child?
Could she have taken up karate because of her father?


WHY IS MIKE’S APPEARANCE LIKELY IN THE UPCOMING SEASON? 

Terry Silver told Kreese at the finale of Cobra Kai
[https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/cobra-kai/]season 4
[https://www.netflix.com/title/81002370] about friends, who can lend him a
helping hand in managing the dojos. Fans are betting that one of these friends
is none other than Mike Barnes. After all, Silver had teamed up with Mike in
Karate Kid 3 to make Daniel’s life a living hell.

Plus, the show just loves bringing back its villains. Kreese, Terry Silver, and
Chozen all have made an appearance except for Mike Barnes.

What do you think? Will Mike Barnes re-enter LaRusso’s life?
