Cobra Kai is one of the most popular shows on Netflix. The show began streaming back in 2018 on YouTube Red, and is in the middle of its sixth and final season.
Other than the martial arts element of the series, wrestling fans have another reason to watch Cobra Kai. One of the most popular wrestlers of AEW, former AEW Women’s World Champion Dr. Britt Baker D.M.D has played a role in the show.
Recently while speaking to US Magazine, Britt Baker shared the real story of how she landed her role on the show.
“I met one of the writers, Hayden [Schlossberg], and I was like, ‘Oh my gosh, I’m Britt,’” she recalled. “He recognized me from social media. I kind of joked, but not joking, ‘If you ever need anything, I’m a huge fan and would love to be involved.’ Eventually, he called me and said, ‘You really have the Cobra Kai never say die attitude. If you’re interested, we have a role for you in mind and this is what it is,’” Britt Baker remembered.
Cobra Kai star Martin Kove has also appeared on AEW programming in the past, showing up to give Baker advice on the February 16, 2022 episode of Dynamite.
Baker also shared that she hasn’t seen the show yet. Britt Baker is waiting for all the episodes to be released so she can binge-watch the show.
“I have to be honest, I haven’t even watched it yet,” she admitted. “I want to wait for all of it to come out so I can watch it all!”
Part 3 of the final season will begin to stream in February 13, 2025.
