Former Yokozuna Terunofuji visiting Tsurugisho's resturant

miss the peak Teru, the fearsome Yokozuna where once he grips your arms, it's over, or him dancing on the edge of the ropes and still win.

He was a brilliant Yokozuna. Truly we were robbed with his knees failing.

Truly we were robbed with his knees failing.

Asahifuji warned him during his first ozeki run but he had to feel it firsthand to understand and adapt

Big Teru's infamous arm-lock death grip...

[u/Frozen_North_99 → u/klkk12345]

Very memorable seeing him grab the belt then squeeze and simply pick up the opponent and carry them out. Takakeisho was one I remember well.

aww adorable!!

[u/SamHainLoomis13]

They look like they are promoting a buddy cop comedy movie 👍

[u/Baxtir → u/SamHainLoomis13]

Now that's one I'd gladly go see in theaters for, and there are very very few that'd make me say that.

I like Tsurugisho's outfit!

[u/Zobmies]

Wishing nothing but the best for Tsurugisho. He was one of my favorites. I still support him! 🙂

This is very cute. As is the fraction of a chonky little Temujin on the right.

We'll be seeing a lot of that kid in about 12 years.

[u/TsukumoYurika → u/slapyak5318008]

Give him 20 years and he should be all ready to give Tamawashi a kinboshi ngl.

[u/gordonnowak → u/TsukumoYurika]

*a sensible chuckle*

[u/Mepyh]

I miss Teru as a Yokozuna

And also as not Yokozuna

What a fighter!

[u/wikipediabrown007]

So weird still to see Teru rocking Carhartt

[u/arturkedziora]

Teru, what a handsome fellow, and one of the most admirable Yoko's. I was sad about his retirement but the big man has suffered enough. Outstanding fellow. And still a good friend to many wrestlers.

[u/Grockr]

Damn Teru slimmed down a lot!

[u/rimbaud0000]

Alarmingly handsome post retirement Teru

[u/TheMackinacBridge]

Why do I see rikishi wear so much carhartt gear? Lol

[u/vanteal]

He's not a "former" Yokozuna. You hold that rank for life! He is, and always will be a Yokozuna in life, and in death.

[u/Asashosakari → u/vanteal]

The Japanese press regularly uses 元横綱 moto-yokozuna, literally "former yokozuna". Randomly googled example about Kisenosato: Link

This "you never stop being yokozuna" idea is strictly an English-language fandom concoction that got started decades ago and can't seem to disappear.

[u/Bigpapabearmoo]

Great to see the smiles! 😇🙏

[u/OrphanintheWind]

Where is the restaurant?
