The Terror Twins - Damian Priest & Rhea Ripley will continue to wreak havoc on Monday Nights on Raw as two dedicated segments have been announced featuring the two top superstars who are now expelled from Judgment Day.

A newly-announced segment will have Rhea Ripley open things on the coming episode of WWE Raw as the show returns to its home of USA Network, tonight after being shifted for two weeks on SyFy due to USA's Olympics coverage.

This comes in light of Ripley's angry state of mind following the betrayal by her on-screen boyfriend Dominik Mysterio at SummerSlam who helped Liv Morgan to retain her Women's World Championship against Ripley at the PLE.

Damian Priest is Ripley's crime partner for the time being as he was also betrayed at SummerSlam by former Judgment Day cohort Finn Balor and thereby had to drop the WWE World Heavyweight Title to Gunther on the same night.

This week, Priest will get his hands on Judgment Day's Carlito in a singles contest. Last week, Priest defeated JD McDonagh via disqualification after Dominik and the rest of the faction members pounced on him.

In a tag team match, The Creed Brothers will take on the team of Akira Tozawa and Otis. This will be a rematch from the July 29 episode of Raw where The Creeds won. Along with Chad Gable, they are now known as American Made.

The 14-time WWE World Heavyweight Championship Randy Orton will also make an appearance on this week's Raw. As informed last week, he will challenge Gunther for the world title at Bash in Berlin on August 31.

Two title matches were already announced to serve to be the co-main-events of the August 12 episode of WWE Raw that takes place at the Moody Center in Austin, Texas. The loaded card set for the show goes as follows:

• Two-out-of-three falls match for WWE Intercontinental Championship: Bron Breakker (c) vs. Sami Zayn
• Number-one Contender's Match for WWE Women's Tag Team Championships: Damage CTRL (IYO SKY & Kairi Sane with Dakota Kai) vs. Shayna Baszler & Zoey Stark with Sonya Deville
• Rhea Ripley kicks off the show
• Randy Orton appears
• Damian Priest vs. Carlito
• American Made vs. Alpha Academy
• Odyssey Jones appears
