The Sekiwake career of Wakamotoharu has ended for now. After four straight basho at Sumo's third-highest rank, the middle Onami brother has, like younger sibling Wakatakakage, left behind a legacy of not quite being an Ozeki. So let's once again praise an Arashio-beya wrestler for getting here against the odds through a sumo based on never beating yourself and never backing down.
