Right now the big name is Asashoryu, but he was not listed as wrestling that day. Right now the rising star is a Bulgarian who has attained the second highest sumo rank of Ozeki called Kotooshu. His match was very good, and it was easy to tell it was him, being one of the few non oriental Sumo wrestlers doing well. If there is a particular name you are curious about I can look it up and see if I remember the bout.

By the way, my brain likely tastes vaguely of fish at the moment so it's likely not a prime candidate - give it some time to detox.
