WWE Raw (8/12/24) Results

- Rhea Ripley kicks off the show. She says that Dominik Mysterio stabbed her in the back, but as he's probably heard before, it wasn't deep enough. She said she would remind Liv Morgan and Dom who she is. Morgan and Mysterio interrupt her. Dom says he betrayed Ripley because he likes being treated like a man. Morgan brags about stealing everything from Ripley. Ripley says she only took her weak links and says that because she loves the sound of her own voice, "they" were able to figure out where she was. Damian Priest appears behind them and brawls with Dom in the concession area. Morgan tries to save her man, but Ripley chases her off, and Priest beats Dominik through the crowd and into the ring. Carlito makes the save for Mysterio, and the next match begins.

* Damian Priest def. Carlito

- Finn Balor, JD McDonagh, Dominik Mysterio, and Liv Morgan come out to attack Priest. Ripley comes out for the save, and The Terror Twins clean house. Ripley almost hits Dom with the Riptide, but Morgan again saves her man.

- Maxxine Dupri is backstage with Alpha Academy, and Ivy Nile attempts to talk her into not appearing at ringside at the upcoming Texas Tornado Match. It doesn't work. Dupri wants to be there.

A vignette recaps the Wyatt Sicks debut and features Bo Dallas sitting alone, talking to himself as he recounts the events. Dallas says that Bray Wyatt was with the group in spirit during the match. Dallas then sees a television that keeps repeating the statement, "The work must go on." Dallas and Uncle Howdy repeatedly say, "My life, for you," to close the promo.

- A vignette recaps the debut of Odyssey Jones. New Day's Kofi Kingston is excited for his debut tonight. Xavier Woods still seems to be filled with skepticism, though.

- Tonight's event is the 35th TV event sellout and the 52nd overall event sellout for WWE this year.

* Odyssey Jones def. Vincent Winey

- Post-match: The Final Testament (Akam, Karrion Kross, Paul Ellering, Scarlett & Rezar) confront New Day and Jones. Kross tries to say that Kingston is attempting to replace Xavier with Jones. Xavier tries to set up a tag team match for next week, but Kofi interrupts him and sets up a six-man tag instead.

- Adam Pearce is in his office, interrupted by Drew McIntyre. Pearce says CM Punk is not there tonight, but McIntyre says he doesn't care about CM Punk and is instead concerned about why Randy Orton is getting a shot at the World Heavyweight Championship. McIntyre says he will take care of the problem tonight.

* Texas Tornado: American Made (Julius & Brutus Creed) def. Alpha Academy (Akira Tozawa & Otis)

- Oba Femi is in the crowd and confronts Otis.

* WWE Women's Tag Team Championship #1 Contender's Match: Kairi Sane & IYO Sky vs. Zoey Stark & Shayna Baszler ends in a No-Contest

- The match ended with Alba Fyre and Isla Dawn breaking up a pinfall as IYO Sky hit Zoey with her Over the Moonsault. Fyre and Dawn attacked both teams and posed with the Tag Team Championship belts.

- R-Truth comes up to a forlorn Miz. He tries to cheer him up by saying he's got him an Intercontinental Championship match with Bron Breakker. He instead booked him a match against Bronson Reed. Randy Orton approaches them and tries to hype up Miz into delusionally believing he has a chance. Orton is coming out to cut a promo next.

- Randy Orton cuts a promo about winning his first World Championship 20 years ago. Gunther interrupts him. Gunther talks about Randy Orton being a screw-up. Randy Orton talks about admitting to his scripts and says he did everything the American way. Gunther then says Randy Orton's grandfather and father were both screw-ups, so it comes naturally to him. Drew McIntyre's music hits, and that distraction allows Randy Orton to hit Gunther with an RKO.

- CM Punk then blindsides Drew McIntyre. McIntyre gets the better of him briefly and tries to take off his belt to attack Punk, but Punk fights back and whips McIntyre with his belt. McIntyre scurries off.

- Jackie Redmond interviews Sheamus about his issues with Pete Dunne. Sheamus says he doesn't understand why Dunne has such a problem with him. Ludwig Kaiser interrupts this. He says he's still intent on taking out "The Celtic Warrior." Pete Dunne takes his opportunity to attack Sheamus from behind with a shillelagh.
