The Strong Man Court or Court of the Strong Men (Mtl:కెలెమె వినికి పొపొ) is the body that operates and controls professional sumo wrestling in the Divine Kingdom. Contrary to its Tsurushimese counterpart, salaries of the Kelem Winikob, Referees, Helpers, and various other personnels aren't under the Court's payroll. Instead, salaries are left to the discretion of each individual stable, generally to be negociated before the signature of a contract. The Court, however, has jurisdiction over conflicts that could appear concerning solely sumo stables, be it about the salaries, the contracts, mismanagement of the establishment, tensions between wrestlers, and so on. It is also its responsability to organize the "Nine Divine Tournaments" of the Mutul and international competitions or showmatches with other Sumo organizations. The organisation is run entirely by the Elders of the 52 constituent stables. The organization has its headquarters in the northern wing of the Hunpik K'o K'uhnah, the Thousand Masks Temple, in K'alak Muul. The Temple is also the main center of formation of God Impersonators and other traditional entertainers of the Divine Kingdom.
History
The Mutuleses first came into contact with Sumo after they established the Mutulese Legation in Tsurushima. At the time, professional sumo groups existed, as entertainers for the Tsurushimese Upper class. The rules of the sport were already quite similar to their modern form, but tournaments didn't have champions, the score of the rikishi weren't tracked, and their promotion depended more on their popularity than their performances. Rikishi quickly became part of the distractions that could be offered in the Legation as simple show matches were organized within the district.
In 1608, a Mutulese trader convinced two Rikishi to follow him back to the Mutul. There, they held show matches and public display of the sport in Yu before moving across to K'alak Muul where they performed a match for the K'uhul Ajaw and his court.
In 1623, three veteran rikishi and their retainers were convinced to move to the Divine Kingdom to establish their own schools. They received recognition as Aj K'in and their establishments were officially recorded as Temples, as were other martial arts training facilities in the Mutul. The first real sumo tournament of the Mutul was held the next year in Yu between all three champions. The next tournament would be held in K'alak Muul 5 years later, and involved all of the Masters and their disciples, now fully trained.
Sumo would continue to slowly develop until the period of intense change that was the Itzamnaaj Reformation. Multiple structures began to appear with the aim to structure the sumo scene. By the 1880s, these had coalesced into two competing "Associations": one based in Yu, the other in K'alak Muul.
