You raise an interesting issue. Is there any list of sekitori who have a tsukibito for whom they used to be (a) tsukibito? I guess you are only safe abusing tsukibito if you are a Yokozuna, otherwise demotion could wind you up getting abused as a tsukibito of the wrestler you used to abuse. That potential works as a deterrent for such abuse, I would imagine.

I recall that a man who has been a sekitori never becomes someone else's tsukebito -- but I don't recall if this is a rule or a custom.
