Hatsu 2024 Rank: Maegashira #1 West
Hatsu 2024 Record: 9-6
Asanoyama was very close to his Ozeki form, but not quite there. 9-6 from Maegashira #1 puts him back in the Sanyaku, and he can challenge for a yusho with his impressive grappling skills. What he'll need to do that is a bit of luck both in injuries and circumstances, as well as being absolutely locked in for all 15 days.
