I went looking for Daieisho’s pushing attack and found a surprise: his most frequent recent winning finish is a slap-down. That makes the opening charge worth another look.
What happens after the push?
The JSA display lists slap-downs at 25%, push-outs at 23% and thrust-downs at 15%, alongside 48 wins including one default. A slap-down takes the opponent down from above; a thrust-down redirects them sideways. “A pushing wrestler” does not mean every win ends with someone being pushed over the boundary.
The figures cannot tell us whether forward pressure created each opening. They do give us a useful question for the replay: how did the opponent respond before the final downward or sideways movement?
Four closing wins brought him back
Daieisho went 7–8 at Maegashira 4 in January, March and May 2026. July brought 10–5 at the same rank. From 6–5, he beat Fujiseiun, Takanosho, Kotoshoho and Yoshinofuji on the final four days. September puts him back at Komusubi, his first appearance in sanyaku since July 2025.
That sequence gives “a return to the upper ranks” some substance: three narrowly losing tournaments, then four consecutive wins to finish.
A quieter detail
His questionnaire names My Hero Academia and One Piece, and values gratitude and consideration. I like having those answers beside the fierce attack. He represents Oitekaze stable and comes from Asaka, Saitama; his highest rank is Sekiwake and he has one top-division championship.
