Gregory Helms is doing well after undergoing surgery today to repair two broken vertebrae in his neck. The SmackDown Superstar and former Cruiserweight Champion is expected to be out of action between nine months and a full year while recuperating and rehabbing his neck.
The extent of the injury to his neck was determined when Helms consulted with Dr. Lloyd Youngblood last week. Dr. Youngblood performed the surgery on Helms earlier today, and Helms is said to be in high spirits.
