 ====Name origin====
-Hariyama's name is a shortening of its Japanese name, ''Hariteyama''. Its name may be a combination of 張り手''harite'', an open-hand slap move in sumo, 張り合う ''hariau'', to compete with, or 張り倒す ''haritaosu'', to knock down, and 山 ''yama'', mountain. ''Hariyama'' literally means 針山, pincushion, and it is also a sumo ranking.
