In an update on Hiroki Sumi appearing as Entrant #7 in yesterday’s WWE Greatest Royal Rumble event, WWE announced in an article on their official website that Sumi, who competed at the event under his real name, is a former sumo wrestler who competed under the name Hishofuji for 12 years, a career that was highlighted by a 22-match win streak.
The company are questioning if Sumi’s appearance was a one-time only deal, or whether he will make further appearances down the line.
