Level of detail[edit]

It looks like the Appearances section is becoming just a synopsis of the plot o the entire Cobra Kai show. I’m not sure that is the point of that section. Each season has multiple detailed paragraphs with many sentences that are technically true but do not even mention Johnny Lawrence. What is the purpose of rehashing the entire plot of Cobra Kai? I don’t think it is necessary for the explanation of Johnny’s basic role on the show. I suggest leaving the plot recap to the article about the show.

Winning the All Valley Tornament twice?[edit]

When was it told, that Johnny won the 1982 and 1983 Tournament? In The Karate Kid Part 3 Daniel LaRusso was called the first to win two times in a row. 2A02:8108:8AC0:5DEC:9D36:F8BD:FBBC:DD5D (talk) 14:41, 16 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

In the latest season of Cobra Kai it explicitly says Johnny is a 2-time champion during the tournament. Daniel informs the MC who announces it before the final round. It was stated at a previous time, but this instance I’m certain of. Ryukin (talk) 15:57, 16 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Nj connection[edit]

In cobra Kai, it is revealed that johnnys ssn begins with 14. That would place him, sometime in his past when he was issued a ssn, in New Jersey. Ssn were distributed in a geographical manner until 2011.

How can we reconcile or present this? Thanks 2603:7080:493F:FDD8:746F:18E3:C13D:BE88 (talk) 12:44, 13 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Not always true. My dad and I have the same first 3 digits but we were born 28 years and 700+ miles apart. No geographic similarity. My wife has the same first 2 digits as my dad and I and she was born 1600 miles from me and 1000 from my dad. So no, the first 2 digits don’t say much about anything.
