Card Game
Sumo Slammer cards
There are three known colors of card shown in the series:
SUMO Blue
The most common card.
SUMO Red
The second most common and rare card.
SUMO Gold
The rarest card. Ben puts a lot of effort into finding this card, so it is obviously valuable to Sumo Slammers fans. It's first seen in Washington B.C., in a store.

Arcade Games
In the episode Kevin 11, Ben went Ghostfreak to play a game in a four star hotel when he wasn't allowed into the arcade because of that very video game and promptly caused himself, Max and Gwen to be thrown out after Max already paid for the Room.
TV Series
In the episode Monster Weather, is revealed that there is also a Sumo Slammer TV show. Ben references Alien Force while watching the show, and the series is a parody of Ben 10. The version of Sumo Slammers that he watches now is called Sumo Slammers: Hero Generation. Hero Generation was the working name for Alien Force. It takes place 5 years later than the original Sumo Slammers series ( in the original series, Ben is 10; in Alien Force, he is 15), with the villain from the original joining up with the Hero, a reference to Kevin joining up with Ben in Alien Force. Ben even references how Alien Force wasn't as popular as the original, by saying that Hero Generation was all messed up and what not. When Kevin expresses disgust towards the show, Ben says it is not as good as Sumo Slammers: Classic, a reference to Ben 10. He then says that in 5 episodes, it will switch to the original. This may be a reference because in 2 episodes, Ben 10: Ultimate Alien will start. (Possibly the third series of Sumo Slammers will be Sumo Slammers: Evolution, as Evolution was the working title for Ultimate Alien.)

Trivia
- Dwayne McDuffie stated that Ben 10 (and its sequels) as a series doesn't exist in their continuity. This could mean that Sumo Slammers is the equivalent.
- Kevin appears to have been a fan of Sumo Slammer as a kid, but appears to have lost interest in it.
- Ben mentioned in The Final Battle: Part 1 that there is a sequel series of the Sumo Slammers show. He mentions that evil bad-guy, Kenko, the Shapeshifter has joined Ishiyama and also the sequel isn't as good as the original which is a nod to Ben and Kevin as they were enemies in the original series but have teamed up in the sequel series.
- In the episode Duped when Ben was watching a Sumo Slammers movie in the theater he and the audience said, "it's slammer time!", another parody of the series being that his catch phrase is "it's hero time!".
- In Vengeance Of Vilgax: Part 1, Kevin seems excited about a Sumo Slammers movie that Ben mentions. In The Final Battle: Part 1, he leaves Ben's house while Ben watches Sumo Slammers. As he leaves, Kevin quotes "I'm surrounded by nerds," namely Ben and his Sumo Slammers craze.
- The company purposely includes one bad episode every season to boost interest (claim made by Ben).
- The Sumo Slammers TV series makes a lot of reference to the Ben 10 series where Ben claims that the sequel series have Kenko joining forces with Ishiyama (reference to Ben and Kevin's alliance earlier in the series) as well as the series which is not as good (reference to Ben 10: Alien Force's popularity) as the original, there is a second sequel which was said to be more like the original which references Ben 10: Ultimate Alien.
- In the online game: Fusion Fall several other characters like Sumo Slammers. Such as Bloo (Fosters Home for Imaginary Friends) and Mandark (Dexter's Laboratory) oddly enough they were both mentioned during Nano Missions. Bloo needs his Juice box back so he can play sumo slammers online and beat Omnitrixter (Ben) and same with Mandark except he wants to find out who Omnitrixter is.
- Omnitrixter is Ben's Sumo Slammers online account.
- Sumo Slammers has appeared in every Ben 10 series so far.
