Hakkeyoi (はっけよい)
The phrase shouted by a sumo referee during a bout, specifically when the action has stalled and the wrestlers have reached a stand-off. There are numerous theories as to its meaning but 'Put some spirit into it!' is widely cited.

Nokotta (残った)
Something the referee shouts during the bout indicating to the wrestler on defense that he is still in the ring. Literally translates as 'remaining' as in remaining in the ring.

Sumo wrestlers have a pretty strict diet to fatten themselves which includes lots of protein, high-calorie food and such, cucumbers are essentially the opposite of that since they're mostly made out of water.
The way I interpreted the joke is basically that the a Kappa's love for cucumbers and sumo are essentially in direct opposition of each other.

The lack of fat and protein from eating cucumbers, is being covered by eating ass?
