Oshiogawa stable (2022)

Oshiogawa stable (押尾川部屋, Oshiogawa-beya) is stable of sumo wrestlers, one of the Nishonoseki group of stables. It broke off from Oguruma stable by its founder, former sekiwake Takekaze, and officially opened in February 2022.[1] The planned opening of the stable was first announced in April 2021, and was prompted by the imminent retirement of the head of Oguruma stable, ex-ozeki Kotokaze, who turns 65 years of age in April 2022.[2]

Ring name conventions

Oshiogawa has announced that all his recruits will have the kanji kaze (風, wind) as a prefix in their shikona. In Oguruma stable, it was used as a suffix.[3]
