The basics of Sumo Wrestling are effectively identical to dealing with charging [[Ordon Goat|Goat]]s,<ref>{{Cite|Link, you've heard of sumo wrestlin', right? Gorons like to match strength in sumo contests. Luckily for you, the basics of sumo are the same as stoppin' chargin' goats... You wanna hear more?|Mayor Bo|TP}}</ref> as Link must steady himself, grab the Goat by the horns and knock it over. The same principle is applied when Link must ascend Death Mountain, as Gorons will charge towards the hero and attempt to knock him off the mountain. With the Iron Boots, Link is able to stop the rolling Gorons, and throw them aside. | The basics of Sumo Wrestling are effectively identical to dealing with charging [[Ordon Goat|Goat]]s,<ref>{{Cite|Link, you've heard of sumo wrestlin', right?

When Link reaches the top of Death Mountain, he is confronted by several Gorons, who threaten to ram into him, but are stopped by [[Gor Coron]], who compliments the young hero's achievements.<ref>{{Cite|ENOUGH! Is this young one such an imposing enemy that you must all gang up on him? I think not, Little Brothers. I am a Goron elder, little human. I am called Gor Coron. Because of certain...circumstances, I must lead the Goron tribe in place of Darbus, our tribal patriarch. Tell me, little human, do you come from the village below? You have done well to come this far. You are strong...for a human.|Gor Coron|TP}}</ref> He informs Link that outsiders are not allowed into the [[Goron Mines]] unless they can win in a challenge of Sumo.<ref>{{Cite|However... The mines beyond here are sacred to my tribe. Outsiders are not allowed. Unless... I could make an exception...but you would have to beat me in a contest of power. Are you willing to try that, little human?|Gor Coron|TP}}</ref> If Link manages to defeat Gor Coron, the elderly Goron will acknowledge his strength and grant him passage into the Goron Mines on the condition that the young hero must help calm their enraged patriarch, [[Darbus]].<ref>{{Cite|Young warrior... You have a strong will...and sharp eyes. Fine traits... Want to see how well you can use them? You have seen it, I would bet... The mountain, erupting without pause... When the mountain began to rage, all four of us elders and Darbus, our patriarch, went inside to investigate its anger. We have a treasure that was entrusted to us by the spirits, and we must protect it. Do you understand? But the moment Darbus reached out and touched the treasure...everything went wrong. He collapsed...and before our very eyes transformed into an unspeakable monster! He began to rage through the mines, trailing ruin behind him...and the eruptions grew more frequent and more severe. We used all of our strength to seal him deep inside the mountain... It...grieved us to do this to our patriarch...but we had no other course of action. I ask this favor of you, young warrior... Go to the aid of Darbus! Make no mistake, the spirits have guided you here. I, Gor Coron, need your help... On behalf of my entire clan, I ask you for your aid! ...You two! Let the young warrior pass.|Gor Coron|TP}}</ref> The basic wrestling techniques are revisited once more inside the Goron Mines, when Link faces [[Dangoro]] on top of a suspended ring above a pit of magma. In order to defeat Dangoro, Link must grab hold of him and knock him into the magma. | |||
