Azumazeki stable

It was founded in February 1986 by the Hawaiian born Takamiyama of the Takasago stable in Higashi–Komagata, Sumida, Tokyo.

[1] A total of nine foreign born wrestlers have fought for the stable: seven from the United States, one from Great Britain and one (Kosei) from China who retired in January 2017.

In 2012 it absorbed Nakamura stable when Takamiyama's former stablemate Fujizakura retired as a coach upon turning 65.

In February 2018 the stable moved from Sumida to larger premises in Shibamata District, Katsushika.

Some wrestlers at this stable took ring names or shikona that begin with the characters 高見 (read: takami), meaning high and view, in deference to the coach and owner, the former Takamiyama.
