    Rikishi Status Natsu 2018 - Day 15 no update

    I can only assume that if it was a concussion then they would have to admit there wasn't enough governance yesterday. And they are not lying just declaring injuries worsened during the basho.

    Rikishi Status Natsu 2018 - Day 15 no update

    It probably is. The injuries mentioned were the ones troubling him before the basho.

    Basho Talk Natsu 2018 (SPOILERS)

    In fairness to him his vision of Ryden's legs was blocked by Ikioi's body so he was looking at the foot of Ikioi which went down before Ryuden's elbow. Unfortunately he got it wrong as the leg down first was the difference but they have to select one way or the other as you know.

    Basho Talk Haru 2018 (SPOILERS)

    Not quite but sounds like a good story. Chiyo turned and came back into the fight only to finish on his face on the dohyo.

    Videos and promo-Haru 2018 - Days 1-15

    Me too. And to say that it prompted rikishi to start is doubtful as many have expressed the opposite. Either someone has said something to the gyoji or a personal something in his life has him perform a complete transformation.

    Basho Talk Hatsu 2018 (SPOILERS)

    Aminishiki and Terunofuji are expecting to return. Aminishiki following doctor's check up Monday so could be back Tuesday or Wednesday, Terunofuji's sugar count is down so possibly coming back. Apparently he and Oyakata don't see beyond that. Amazing.
