Oshiogawa wrestlers stand outside their stable (c. 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. 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.
In May 2024, Oshiogawa got his first new sekitori with the promotion of Kazekeno to the juryo division, as both Yago and Amakaze had made into sekitori long before transferring to Oshiogawa.
As of January 2023 it has 6 active sumo wrestlers.
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.
