5 Ups & 6 Downs From WWE Raw (July 4)

4. Ignore That They Fought Over Ketchup

That's a real sentence, people.

Seth Rollins vs. Ezekiel was a tidy little match despite the fact it happened because Zeke squirted ketchup on Rollins during the July 4th party capers. Obviously, that was terrible setup, but both guys made it old news by quietly going about their business and producing the goods.

Hats off to Ezekiel for hanging with Seth, because that's never a given - Rollins also deserves a pat on the back for giving the ex-Elias enough that he didn't look like the "R-Truth" to Seth's "Gunther" here at all. In fact, Zeke more than held his own against one of WWE's top names.

Sure, this bout will go on a list called 'X Worst Reasons Why Wrestling Matches Happened' (or something), but with the caveat that it actually ended up being good in the end. Yes, you should ignore that they were effectively fighting over ketchup.
