A form of professional wrestling from Japan where large wrestlers try to push each other out of a ring.
From Japanese 'sumo' (相撲), combining 'sou' (similar) and 'bu' (to strike or fight). The sport dates back centuries in Japan and was originally a religious ritual.
Sumo wrestlers follow strict traditions—they wear topknots, live in special training houses, and follow rules so old they were originally performed for Shinto gods as fertility and harvest rituals!
