Sekiwake Shodai has been tearing it up recently and the extra reset he is getting during the COVID-19 Pandemic seems to be helping his sumo. He just won his first Top-Division Championship today and looks to be getting his Ozeki promotion news soon (hopefully). He absolutely dominated and beat everyone that was ranked above him and finished the tournament with a 13-2 record.
Here is Shodai featured on his September 2020 Fantasy Sumo Card and the next time we see him on a card he will most likely be an Ozeki.
I hope everyone had an awesome weekend and sayonara!
Nice to see that sumo wresting is back. Do they wear masks when they wrestle?
ReplyDeleteThey do not. The interesting thing, though, is that audience member are not allowed to cheer, only clap. Cheering produces too much potential COVID-carrying water droplets. No lie.
DeleteNice to see a new Ozeki (probably)!!
ReplyDeleteI’m hoping to hear something soon!
