Kakuryu brings order to the universe. The yokozuna fells Takayasu, with authority, and remains unbeaten. He faces Ikioi who will need to rack up a lot of wins next week to stay in the sanyaku.  Kakuryu is chased by a bunch of wrestlers with one loss, led by Hakuho. Harumafuji also won but was again very close to stepping out of bounds. Kisenosato won again and Goeido had a strong victory against Aoiyama, who’s been having a great tournament. Kotoshogiku lost again, this time to Toyohibiki. Ichinojo took out Ikioi.
