Note: The numbers to the left of each wrestler is that individuals' overall rating.
The Juryo division also had a high intensity match. Hidanohana was forced to go all out against Yutakayama in order to earn his win. His fellow favourite to win this Hatsu, Onishiki, was not so fortunate, losing to a man who looks like he means business for this tournament. Tamakiyama pulling off the upset and brimming with confidence.
