Xander Stone is a minor character in the Cobra Kai series. He fights out of the Topanga Karate dojo and is the champion of the 2017 All Valley Karate Tournament.
Pre Cobra Kai
The only known fact about Xander is that he won the All Valley Karate tournament in 2017.
Cobra Kai- Season 1
Xander returns to the All Valley Karate tournament in 2018 in order to defend his title. He advances to the semifinals, defeating Cobra Kai student Aisha Robinson along the way.
He then faces Cobra Kai's top student Miguel Diaz in the semifinals. Prior to the round he gives a speech about eradicating violence and racism from society, which is applauded by the crowd but poorly thought of by Johnny Lawrence, who right before the match tells Miguel to "kick that pansy bitch in the face".
Despite putting up a good fight and scoring 1 point, he is ultimately defeated by Miguel, who goes on to win the championship. Xander, however, takes the loss of his champion status like a gentleman, bowing to Miguel at the match's conclusion.
