An official statement by the NJPW website said:
“On October 21’s G1 final, Kota Ibushi suffered an injury in the ring that led to the match being stopped. After treatment from ringside medical staff, he was taken for a thorough evaluation.
The evaluation revealed a right anterior dislocation of the shoulder and joint lip damage. Recovery is expected to take two months.

We apologise for any concern caused, and join fans in wishing Ibushi the very best in his recovery.”
