Because that was what make Snake Eyes - Snake Eyes: an outsider that's accepted into a ninja clan because he's just THAT good.

I always felt that the Snake Eyes / Storm Shadow story was inspired by the (then fairly recent) Chuck Norris movie 'The Octagon'.

Apparently its old British slang for "cool"? Although I cannot say if that's true

It is.

I can't say I ever remember it being a British thing unless I somehow missed it all my life lol. Could have been said in a different region. The closest thing I can recall from my own childhood was saying things like "that's well wicked!"

'Wicked' was a term that came into being (as a common phrase with 'the kids') towards the end of the 80's. Wizard was much, much older - maybe from the 30's-50's. It pops up in Enid Blyton books from time to time.
