If anything, AJ should apologise to his fans for not wising up enough to start wearing a cup to the ring.

Shinsuke Nakamura has low-blowed him several times now, and it seems to happen to the WWE Champion every week. He knows it's coming by now and, for some inexplicable reason, still hasn't done anything to try and counteract the heel's tactics.

Though true that WWE are trying to sell Nakamura as a cunning villain who strikes when foes least expect it, it's hardly great to paint your top champ as an idiot. A few more of these unprotected ball shots and that's how AJ will come across.

Someone buy the guy a cup, for crying out loud.
