Just a good tachi-ai, from Gonoyama. Aonishiki let someone get lower than him.

    Yes, and looks like Gonoyama got his hands in Aonishiki's underarms too, and was able to leverage that to lift him up and back.

    Oh yeah. It was the same Oho strat from a basho or two ago, but Gonoyama did it at Gonoyama speed.

    The funny thing is, I only ever knew Gonoyama from being the guy sitting on the sideline last tourney, looking like a guilty schoolboy being called up to the Principal's office. (I think he was there to be part of the closing ceremony?)
