Wrestler order us back? (4)
I believe the answer is:
sumo
'wrestler' is the definition.
Both the answer and definition are singular nouns.
Maybe you can see an association between them that I don't see?
'order us back?' is the wordplay.
'order' becomes 'om' (Order of Merit).
'back?' says the letters should be written backwards (I've seen 'backed' mean this).
'om'+'us'='omus'
'omus' back-to-front is 'SUMO'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for sumo that I've seen before include "Style of traditional Japanese wrestling" , "Japanese form of wrestling" , "Large Japanese wrestler" , "Japanese wrestling with big fat men" , "foreign form of fighting" .)
