Welcome to Wrestling Inc.'s live coverage for "WWE Raw" on August 12, 2024, coming to you live from the Moody Center in Austin, Texas!

Sami Zayn was dethroned as Intercontinental Champion by Bron Breakker at WWE SummerSlam on August 3. Tonight, he has the chance to regain the title back when he challenges Breakker in a 2-out-of-3 Falls Match. This will be the third occasion that the two have met in the ring in an Intercontinental Championship match, with their other match taking place at WWE Money In The Bank in June when Zayn had a successful defense.

After coming up short alongside Chad Gable against The Wyatt Sicks in a Six Man Tag Team Match in the main event of last week's edition of "Raw", Julius Creed and Brutus Creed will be going head-to-head with Otis and Akira Tozawa in a Texas Tornado Tag Team Match. The issues between American Made and Alpha Academy have been well documented over the course of the past several weeks, with The Creed Brothers previously emerging victorious over Otis and Tozawa on the July 29 edition of "Raw".

Finn Balor officially unveiled the latest iteration of Judgment Day last week after Damian Priest and Rhea Ripley were betrayed by the group. Later that night, Priest defeated JD McDonagh after Balor became involved in the match. Balor and McDonagh along with Carlito, Dominik Mysterio, and Liv Morgan then overpowered him until Ripley became involved and reunited with Priest. Tonight, Priest has his chance to seek some retribution as he collides with Carlito while Ripley will be sharing something on her mind in the opening segment of the show.

Alba Fyre and Isla Dawn will find out who their next challenges for the WWE Women's Tag Team Championship, as Shayna Baszler and Zoey Stark square off with Damage CTRL's IYO SKY and Kairi Sane in a Number One Contenders Match. The Unholy Union have successfully defended their title twice over the course of the past couple weeks, retaining against Meta-Four and Jade Cargill and Bianca Belair at Week One of "WWE NXT": The Great American Bash and the August 2 edition of "WWE SmackDown" respectively.

Odyssey Jones made his shocking return to WWE last Monday when he provided a helping hand to Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods after the pair defeated Authors of Pain and were subsequently blindsided by them in a post match brawl. Following such, Jones will be competing in his first ever match on "Raw" against an opponent who has yet to be named.

Additionally, Randy Orton has something on his mind to share after he was revealed as GUNTHER's challenger for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship at WWE Bash In Berlin on August 31 last week. Per WWE's event page, the aforementioned Morgan, Jey Uso, and rivals CM Punk and Drew McIntyre are all slated to be in town.
