Asashoryu was the second rikishi after Yanagihara to
finish three wins and no loss in the 1999 January
Mae-zumo. He was an Ichiban Shusse rikishi (winning
three bouts after the third day of Mae-zumo),

Here's the list of rikishis he faced:

On Day 3 Matsuoka
On Day 4 Tokkaizan (Banzuke-gai)
On Day 5 Tashiro (who beat him in the following basho
and went on to win Jonokuchi Yusho in the 1999 March
Basho.)

Here is the list of other rikishis who made the
dohyo-debut in this basho with the banzuke-gai
rikishis who participated in the Mae-zumo. I also
included their rank and record in the Kyushu if they
are still around. The number indicates their Shusse
order in Mae-zumo.

1. Yanagihara Minezaki Beya 3-0 (Kyushu: Sandanme East
63 4-3)
4. Tashiro (Toouyama) Tamanoi 3-1 (his only defeat by
Asashoryu) (Kyushu: Makushita East 37 4-3)

+++++++++++
I am sure this is something someone like Doitsuyama
has but probably not posted in one place.

Here's more of Asashoryu's exploits in his first two
banzuke bashos. 

This one is for his Jonokuchi and Jonidan basho
records.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Asashoryu over Wakasuruga (Jonidan East 44,
Ounomatsu) by Hikiotoshi
Wakasuruga got Asashoryu's mawashi quickly from
tachiai but Asashoryu quickly turned to right and
started ottsuke from right. And then once the opponent
stopped moving in the middle of dohyo, Asashoryu
pulled from his right to the opponent's left and win
by Hikiotoshi.

2. Asashoryu over Toyoizumi (Jonidan West 145,
Tokitsukaze) by Oshidashi
Asashoryu started out with tsupparis pushing left and
right and did not let his opponent get going.
Asashoryu then pushed him out of the dohyo winning by
oshidashi. 

Asashoryu wins the Tomoesen by winning two consecutive
bouts and wins the Jonidan Yusho. 

Counting his Mae-zumo record of 3-0, at this point he
had 16 wins and 1 loss record.
