Cobra Kai Season 5 Fight Scenes Ranked By Brutality

Season 5 kicks off with Episode 1, “Long, Long Way From Home.” This is an apt title, as it centers around Miguel, who is looking for his father in Mexico. He’s there against his mother’s wishes, and though he doesn’t know it, Johnny and Robby are on his tail, looking to bring him home. Eventually, Miguel is led to a place holding a backroom card game.

Miguel attempts to walk into the back to ask if anyone knows his father. He’s stopped by Pueblo (Leonardo Castro), a bouncer, but the man Miguel wants to talk to lets him into the room. Miguel introduces himself and explains who his mother is. Before long, the man becomes irritated, and asks Pueblo to get him out of there. That’s when Pueblo puts his hand on Miguel’s left shoulder.

Miguel deftly grabs the hand, turns, and twists his arm behind his back, hurting Pueblo’s shoulder. He lets go, and Pueblo comes at him, but Miguel easily blocks his attacks. He then takes Pueblo out with a hit to his leg, knocking him to the floor. The fight is over almost as quickly as it begins. Miguel finishes his conversation with the man, who tells him to get out using very colorful language.
