In an update on WWE NXT superstar Hideo Itami being pulled from the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic Tournament, where he was scheduled to team with Kota Ibushi, due to a neck injury that he suffered several weeks ago, the internal feeling is that Itami will be out of action for just over two months.

For those wondering, Itami is currently not scheduled to undergo surgery. If he had underwent surgery, then Itami could have been out of action for anything between 4-6 months.
