    Cobra Kai's sinister karate master, John Kreese (Martin Kove), is seething with vengeance after the humiliating defeat dealt to him by Daniel LaRusso (Ralph Macchio) and the legendary Mr. Miyagi (Noriyuki "Pat" Morita). Determined to make them pay, Kreese teams up with his treacherous partner, Terry Silver (Thomas Ian Griffith), to orchestrate a diabolical scheme that will crush Daniel's spirit—and his championship dreams. Enter the ruthless ringer, Mike Barnes (Sean Kanan), hired to strip Daniel of his title in the cruelest way possible. But when Mr. Miyagi refuses to train Daniel, even under threat, the desperate teen makes a dangerous and costly mistake—seeking guidance from the venomous Terry Silver himself. The stage is set for an epic showdown, and the stakes have never been higher!
