Sumo wrestlers' salaries vary significantly based on their rank. The highest- ranked Yokozuna makes about 3 million yen per month, roughly $20,000 USD, which totals around 50 million yen ($240,000 USD) annually, plus bonuses and prize money for tournament wins. Other ranks receive lower salaries: Ozeki earns about 2.5 million yen/month ($16,700 USD), Sekiwake/Komusubi about 1.8 million yen/month ($12,000 USD), Maegashira about 1.4 million yen/month ($9,300 USD), and Juryo about 1.1 million yen/month ($7,300 USD). Wrestlers ranked below Juryo (such as Makushita and lower divisions) do not receive a fixed salary but earn allowances ranging from about $520 to $1,100 per month depending on their division. Additionally, wrestlers may earn money through prize winnings, bonuses, endorsements, and fan club contributions, making top divisions quite lucrative compared to lower levels.
