It will air live on Wrestle Universe at 11 a.m. JST\/10 p.m. ET Saturday.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bannering the show are three title matches, featuring the debut of another guest from AEW. Here\u2019s what you can look forward to coming Sunday:<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>DDT Dramatic Infinity 2025 Match Card:<\/b><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Main event: KO-D Openweight Championship &#8211; Kazuki Hirata (c) vs. Yoshihiko<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Semifinal: DDT Universal Championship &#8211; Minoru Suzuki (c) vs. Takeshi Masada<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">5th match: KO-D Six-Man Tag Team Championship &#8211; Hideki Okatani, MJ Paul, &amp; Ilusion vs. Yuki Ueno, To-y, &amp; Kaisei Takechi<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4th match: Jun Akiyama &amp; HARASHIMA vs. Evil Uno &amp; Danshoku Dieno<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3rd match: Kazusada Higuchi, Naomi Yoshimura, &amp; Yuki Ishida vs. Chris Brookes, Antonio Honda, &amp; Diego<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2nd match: Yuki Iino &amp; Yukio Naya vs. MAO &amp; KANON vs. Akito &amp; Kazuma Sumi<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Opening match: Shinya Aoki vs. Yuya Koroku<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dark match: Soma Takao &amp; Rukiya vs. Daichi Sato &amp; Hinata Kasai<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><b>Hirata\u2019s First Title Defense Against Yoshihiko<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Kazuki Hirata got the biggest victory of his 15-year career when he used his Right to Challenge title shot at Wrestle Peter Pan to beat Yuki Ueno for the KO-D Openweight Championship. It was one of the biggest surprises in the promotion\u2019s 28-year existence, and one of its most unforgettable moments.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Since then, Hirata has been doing everything he can to escape the other three remaining wrestlers with the Right to Challenge sleeves. It was only at Fighting Beer Garden in Shinjuku Extra Innings two weeks ago that he chose his first challenger in the form of the blow-up doll Yoshihiko.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This will be their fourth singles match, with the challenger winning all of their previous three. Perhaps the champion chose the wrong opponent, but that question will be answered this Sunday, as well as whether he can keep dodging the current Right to Challenge holders.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>The Biggest Match of Masada\u2019s Young Career<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Takeshi Masada made his pro-wrestling debut three years ago in a singles match against \u201cMr. DDT\u201d HARASHIMA. That booking decision itself clearly showed the confidence DDT\u2019s management has in him, and he has a golden opportunity to prove them right this Sunday.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, the task at hand is going to be an uphill battle as he challenges Minoru Suzuki for the Universal title. He definitely bit off more than he can chew, but can he dig deep and somehow find a way to beat the legend in the biggest match of his career so far?<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Kaisei Takechi Guns for His First Title<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Performer-actor turned pro-wrestler Kaisei Takechi is looking to capture his first championship as part of a six-man team with The 37KAMIINA\u2019s (Sauna KAMIINA) To-y and Yuki Ueno. They will face the team of Hideki Okatani, MJ Paul, and Ilusion representing Damnation T.A. for the vacant Six-Man Tag Titles.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While he\u2019s only wrestled in four matches so far, Takechi has successfully utilized his athletic ability in his performances. He has to channel all that and even go higher to help his team and get a taste of pro-wrestling gold.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Evil Uno Comes To DDT<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The leader of the Dark Order is set to make his Japan debut this Sunday in a tag team match against Jun Akiyama and HARASHIMA, with Danshoku Dieno as his partner. Uno is the third AEW talent to fly over this year, following MxM Collection\u2019s debut in June.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It will be interesting to see how his style will fit, especially in a team with one of DDT\u2019s icons in Dieno against two other icons themselves. This match will be his first one this month since his previous one at Canada\u2019s Capital City Championship Combat on August 15.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_142686\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-142686\" style=\"width: 640px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-142686 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/09\/11-48-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"A graphic for DDT Dramatic Infinity for September 28, 2025.\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/09\/11-48-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/09\/11-48-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/09\/11-48-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/09\/11-48-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/09\/11-48.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-142686\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo Credit: DDT Pro-Wrestling<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In other news, The Apex (Yuki Iino &amp; Yukio Naya) successfully defended their KO-D Tag Team titles for the fourth time against reigning Extreme Champion To-y and Yuya Koroku last Tuesday at Dramatic Expo 2025.
