Cobra Kai Confirms Elon Musk Membership; Kreese Training Underway

Elon Musk & Mark Zuckerberg - two imaginary "tough guys." So it makes sense that Musk would go through imaginary "training" with Coba Kai...


At this point, there needs to be some international mandate slapped on Twitter abuser Elon Musk and Meta's Mark "Im A Real Boy!" Zuckerberg that they have to fight – they don't even have a choice anymore. Because, at this point, putting everything on the scales? The sight of those two real-life lightweights beating the collective s**t out of each other might be the only viable thing either of them has left to offer society in some kind of uplifting way. Well, it looks like the fight might just be inching closer to reality – at least in the universe of Josh Heald, Jon Hurwitz, and Hayden Schlossberg's Ralph Macchio & William Zabka-starring Cobra Kai. With the writers' strike delaying things with the final season, it looks like Kreese & the Cobra Kai dojo have found a very familiar face to train in the meantime. "I've started training [Elon Musk]," tweeted series star & official Kreese spokesperson Martin Kove. "He's officially Cobra Kai." That makes sense on so many levels – but we're not buying Zuckerberg being trained by either Daniel or Johnny so this should get interesting (though it probably won't).
