Sumo-July 2026 Grand Sumo Tournament Day 10 Results (7/21/2026) (Top 2 Tiers)

Here are the quick results from today’s Day 10 of the July 2026 Grand Sumo Tournament in Nagoya:
Key: M-Maegashira, K-Komusubi, S-Sekiwake, O-Ozeki, Y-Yokozuna, J-Juryo

Makuuchi (top tier):
Daiseizan (M16) beat Kinbozan (M14)
Nishikifuji (M13) beat Onokatsu (M15)
Asahakuryu (J12) beat Shishi (J14)
Asakoryu (M16) beat Mitakeumi (M11)
Takerufuji (M12) beat Chiyoshima (M10)
Wakamotoharu (M8) beat Kazuma (M15)
Kotoeiho (M7) beat Abi (M12)
Takayasu (M7) beat Tobizaru (M9)
Roga (M8) beat Shodai (M6)
Asanoyama (M10) beat Fujiseiun (M6)
Fujiryoga (M9) beat Oshoma (M5)
Ura (M5) beat Hiradoumi (M3)
Takanosho (M1) beat Fujinokawa (M1)
Gonoyama (M2) beat Yoshinofuji (K)
Ichiyamamoto (M4) beat Kotoshoho (S)
Atamifuji (S) beat Churanoumi (M2)
Kirishima (O) beat Hakunofuji (M2)
Kotozakura (O) beat Oho (K)
Aonishiki (S) beat Hoshoryu (Y)
Onosato (Y) beat Daieisho (M4)
Leader: Aonishiki, Fujinokawa (9-1)
Of note: Injury worries aside, the old Aonishiki clearly is back. Only an apocalyptic collapse will keep him from promotion now, and he could claim his 3rd championship if he keeps winning. It’ll help that he’s done with the Yokozuna who at 6-4 are both about out of it and the only real obstacle left in his path now is Kirishima. But he can’t let his guard down until then as he has to beat everyone else in his way starting tomorrow with Gonoyama. Kotoeiho is keeping pace at 9-1 but also has to beat Shishi tomorrow. 5 are right behind at 8-2 including back-in-it Takayasu, still in eternal pursuit of elusive title 1. At the bottom, Onokatsu will probably be headed back to Juryo as he clinched demotion from M15 while Kazuma is one loss from possibly going back down too at 3-7 in his debut effort.
Yokozuna Watch: Kirishima is at 8-2 and hope for promotion remains alive but he still likely needs to win out and ideally beat Aonishiki. Tomorrow’s opponent is Ichiyamamoto, they have met 2 times this past year and Kirishima won both.
Ozeki Watch: Aonishiki now needs just one more win for re-promotion and could get it tomorrow against Gonoyama. This may be a first-time meeting. In fact, Aonishiki can only miss out if he goes 0-6 the rest of the way.

Juryo:
Arashifuji (J13) beat Tamashoho (J10)
Shirokuma (J9) beat Kayo (J12)
Nishikigi (J14) beat Nishinoryu (J9)
Hatsuyama (J8) beat Tochitaikai (J14)
Kagayaki (J11) beat Tamawashi (J7)
Tohakuryu (J12) beat Meisei (J7)
Tomokaze (J4) beat Midorifuji (J8)
Ryuden (J3) beat Enho (J11)
Hitoshi (J10) beat Dewanoryu (J3)
Tokihayate (J2) beat Kazekeno (J6)
Toshinofuji (J4) beat Sadanoumi (J2)
Shonannoumi (J6) beat Asasuiryu (J1)
Kyokukaiyu (J1) beat Kitanowaka (J5)
Leader: Arashifuji (9-1)
Of note: Unfortunately Ryuden decided to try today and ended his 7-match losing streak by ending Enho’s current 3-match winning streak so Enho is back down to 5-5. Asasuiryu had a potential top tier promotion spoiled by Shonannoumi so at 7-3 he’ll have to try again tomorrow. It’s turning into an Isegahama leaderboard as Arashifuji remains on top at 9-1 with Toshinofuji at 8-2, the latter now with a chance for top tier promotion if he can get enough wins. Arashifuji faces Tokihayate tomorrow with the latter having a chance at promotion back to the top tier with a win, Toshinofuji has Tomokaze who is looking to avoid demotion.

Dragon Gate 7/20/2026 Results

Kobe Pro Wrestling Festival 2026, Dragon Gate’s biggest event of the year, is now in the books.

Today’s event was held at Kobe World Hall in Kobe and can be watched on demand on DRAGONGATE NETWORK. This was also a live GAORA SPORTS broadcast in Japan. You can also watch the first match FOR FREE on YouTube.

The paid attendance has not yet been announced but it was a legit sellout. (UPDATE: The announced paid attendance was 3980. That’s less than half capacity but they did have a somewhat large setup)

Pre-show match: Ho Ho Lun, Punch Tomonaga & Tristan Moody beat Shachihoko BOY. Takashi & Problem Dragon. Lun pinned Dragon with Ho Roll.

Match 1: Mochizuki Junior & Kazuma Kimura beat Ryu Fuda & @KEY. Junior pinned Fuda with a German suplex hold.

Match 2: Masakatsu Funaki beat Jiro Shinbashi by submission in 16 seconds. Which led to…
Match 2 (again): Masakatsu Funaki beat Jiro Shinbashi by ref stoppage (technical submission). Which still went less than 3 minutes.

Match 3: Hyo, JACKY KAMEI & Riiita beat Strong Machine J, U-T & GuC to win the vacant Open The Triangle Gate Championship. Hyo, KAMEI & Riiita become the 100th Open The Triangle Gate Champions. Hyo pinned U-T.

Match 6: Open The Twin Gate Champions Yoshiki Kato & ISHIN beat Yuki Yoshioka & Kota Minoura to retain the titles. Kato pinned Yoshioka. V1 for the champs. On a related note, Yoshioka & Minoura are now a new faction known as XenisS (pronounced “Zenith”).

Match 7: Open The Brave Gate Champion Ryoya Tanaka beat Homare to retain the title. V12(!) for Tanaka. NEW RECORD!!! How many more can he get in his first reign? And who if anyone can stop him? (He does mot yet have the longest reign though. About 3 months to go to take that record from Pac)

Main Event: Kzy beat Open The Dream Gate Champion Madoka Kikuta to win the title. Kzy becomes the 43rd Open The Dream Gate Champion. The last piece of his missing career puzzle in the promotion is missing no longer. Kzy has now won all 4 of the Dragon Gate Championships. Now just a month after turning 40 and approaching his 20th Anniversary in the ring, he is the top dog and, undoubtedly, channeled those Natural Vibes afterwards to send the crowd home very happy because it’s time…it’s KZ Time!

Sumo-July 2026 Grand Sumo Tournament Day 9 Results (7/20/2026) (Top 2 Tiers)

Here are the quick results from today’s Day 9 of the July 2026 Grand Sumo Tournament in Nagoya:
Key: M-Maegashira, K-Komusubi, S-Sekiwake, O-Ozeki, Y-Yokozuna, J-Juryo

Makuuchi (top tier):
Takerufuji (M13) beat Asakoryu (M16)
Shishi (M14) beat Abi (M12)
Kinbozan (M14) beat Asahakuryu (M12)
Onokatsu (M15) beat Mitakeumi (M11)
Chiyoshoma (M10) beat Kazuma (M15)
Asanoyama (M10) beat Daiseizan (M16)
Takayasu (M7) beat Nishikifuji (M13)
Kotoeiho (M7) beat Fujiryoga (M9)
Fujiseiun (M6) beat Tobizaru (M9)
Oshoma (M5) beat Roga (M8)
Ura (M5) beat Wakamotoharu (M8)
Daieisho (M4) beat Shodai (M6)
Gonoyama (M3) beat Takanosho (M1)
Fujinokawa (M1) beat Oho (K)
Kotoshoho (S) beat Hiradoumi (M3)
Atamifuji (S) beat Ichiyamamoto (M4)
Hakunofuji (M3) beat Kotozakura (O)
Churanoumi (M2) beat Kirishima (O)
Aonishiki (S) beat Onosato (Y)
Yoshinofuji (K) beat Hoshoryu (Y)
Leader: Aonishiki, Kotoeiho, Shishi (8-1)
Of note: There were concerns Aonishiki got hurt again yesterday when he took a bad tumble at the end of his win against Takanosho, but he came back today and got one of his biggest career wins yet-defeating Onosato for the first time. It was 4-0 Onosato coming in. Both Yokozuna lost yesterday so Onosato is now 5-4 with Hosboryu at 6-3. Kotoeiho & Shishi clinched promotions to keep pace with Aonoshiki at the top. At the bottom, after staving it off for a day Mitakeumi joined Hiradoumi & Oho as the first official demotions, meaning Oho is out of Sanyaku unless maybe he wins out.
Yokozuna Watch: A second straight setback to Churanoumi drops Kirishima to 7-2. He’s still in it but has almost no room for error left. Tomorrow he gets Hakunofuji, who won their May meeting and is 3-2 against Kirishima over this last year.
Ozeki Watch: Aonishiki now needs just 2 more wins for re-promotion, but today’s win will protect his Sekiwake rank in case of disaster as he clinched a winning record. He has Hoshoryu tomorrow meaning a win would all but do it as he’d get to 9. Hoshoryu won their last meeting in May but Aonishiki won the prior 4 before that.

Juryo:
Tochitaikai (J14) beat Kagayaki (J11)
Tamahsoho (J10) beat Nishikigi (J14)
Arashifuji (J13) beat Shirokuma (J9)
Enho (J11) beat Hatsuyama (J8)
Midorifuji (J8) beat Tohakuryu (J12)
Meisei (J7) beat Hitoshi (J10)
Kayo (J12) beat Tamawashi (J7)
Dewanoryu (J3) beat Nishinoryu (J6)
Kazekeno (J6) beat Ryuden (J3)
Sadanoumi (J2) beat Tomokaze (J4)
Toshinofuji (J4) beat Tokihayate (J2)
Shonannoumi (J6) beat Kyokukaiyu (J1)
Asasuiryu (J1) beat Kitanowaka (J5)
Leader: Arashifuji (8-1)
Of note: RARE KIMARITE ALERT!!! In another example of size matters not, Midorifuji took down Tohakuryu with another new-to-me technique: okuritsuriotoshi, rear lifting body slam. That’s lifting your opponent up from the back and dropping him to the ground. The initial announcement was incorrect as something different and on video it looked more like okuridashi, or rear push out. But the former is what the record will state. Elsewhere, Tamawashi’s winning streak got Kayo’d today to drop the Iron Man to 5-4 and end any faint hopes of a top tier return in September while Arashifuji bounced back from his first loss to clinch promotion and maintain the lead, ensuring he stays in Juryo. Enho improved to 5-4 with his win, at this point one more win should ensure he stays in Juryo in September. At the top, Asasuiryu may be one win away from top tier promotion from J1 while Ryuden is not going back up as he now has demotion from J3 at 1-8.
As he tries to hold off the 7-2 pack tomorrow, Arashifuji faces Tamashoho who is 2-7.

Lower tier notes: 25-1. Asahifuji’s perfect career start and unbeaten run to Juryo is now over as Nabatame handed the Isegahama super-rookie his first career loss in Makushita today. There are 3 left at 5-0 as Nabatame is joined by Futagoyama stablemate Mita at 5-0 along with Fudoho, so there could still be a 6-1 champion and Asahifuji could win it in a playoff and make Juryo. But doing so perfect will not happen. The Sandanme has 5 left at 5-0 including 2 Nakamura stablemates. The Jonidan has 7 left at 5-0 with 2 Kise stablemates so there could potentially be up to 3 all-stablemate playoffs if they keep winning. The Jonokuchi is down to Kakizoe as the sole 5-0 leader and, a day after winning and saying he wants a winning record…41. Moriurara lost to clinch demotion/losing record for what is now 7 full years and 41 straight tournaments with 4+ losses (includes one cancelled tournament in 2020).
