The Cobra Kai is based on the Miyagi universe and KK 1,2,3 and The Next Karate Kid are considered Canon. The writers have stated that this.
The World tournament is interesting, a lot rumours/hoping/wishing/speculating that Jackie Chan may reappraise his role at this tournament.
The series could have Jackie Chan appearing in s6 and at the same time respecting the Miyagi universe without tampering with it by including Chan as a sensei. Jackie Chan could may make a cameo without any need to tie him to the Cobra Kai world aside from being an opposing sensei.
"Anyone who knew Mr. Miyagi and interacted with Mr. Miyagi is canon for our show, for the Cobra Kai show," Macchio said on Jake's Takes. Since Chan and Smith's Karate Kid was a modern-day remake of the 1984 original film, Macchio concluded that their characters would not be able to associate with those from Cobra Kai because "They were not in that [Cobra Kai] world."
