Asanowaka Takehiko is one of the most popular and richest Sumo Wrestler who was born on December 11, 1969 in Ichinomiya, Aichi Prefecture, Japan.
He was an amateur sumo competitor at Kinki University, although he never won any titles. He was recruited by ex-ōzeki Asashio (himself a former collegiate competitor) and joined Wakamatsu stable (later Takasago stable) in March 1992. He began as a makushita tsukedashi, meaning he could make his debut at the bottom of the third makushita division. He was promoted to the second jūryō division in January 1993 and captured the tournament championship in that division in November 1993 with a score of 11-4. Following a 9-6 in January 1994 he was promoted to the top makuuchi division in March of that year.
Asanowaka never managed to reach the titled san’yaku ranks or win a special prize. He was also unable to defeat any yokozuna and had only one win against an ōzeki (Takanonami in May 1997). Nevertheless, he fought in the top division off and on for ten years and his record of 346 wins there is the best amongst maegashira only wrestlers. He was also very popular with tournament crowds. At the peak of his career he wore an outlandish bright yellow mawashi and would enliven the preliminaries by throwing the purifying salt in a manner that resembled an American football player scoring a touchdown. He would also crouch extremely low to the ground when doing the warm up or shikiri. Eventually he was instructed by the Japan Sumo Association to tone these antics down and in his later years on the dohyō wore a black mawashi and was much more subdued.
