"Larry is not there yet" - Cody Rhodes makes bold claim about Pharaoh
WWE Superstar Cody Rhodes has made a bold claim about his dog Pharaoh while addressing a recent rumor about CM Punk's dog Larry. Both dogs have their own merchandise available at the WWE Shop.
A recent edition of WrestleVotes Radio on Backstage Pass made a shocking claim regarding Larry's merchandise sales. According to the report, CM Punk's dog's popularity among wrestling fans saw him outsell several current WWE Superstars and past legends' merchandise sales.
During a recent interview with Adrian Hernandez at ComplexCon, Cody Rhodes stated that he did not believe Larry outselling multiple stars was just a rumor. However, The American Nightmare claimed that his dog Pharaoh was doing even better when it came to merchandise sales. He added that Larry was doing great but had yet to reach Pharaah's level.
"No, I don’t think that’s a rumor. Pharaoh has more, this is going to sound so inside, he has more SKUs on the shelf. He’s got a couple of shirts, the plushes. [...] So, Larry is killing it. He should be! We love Larry in our house. CM Punk loves Pharaoh, but Larry is not there yet. I don’t doubt Larry’s going to get there. [...] We’re talking about dogs, all right? It’s just dogs. Larry’s on his way, all right? Larry’s on his way," he said. [From 1:04 to 1:42]

Cody Rhodes will go face-to-face with Kevin Owens on SmackDown
Kevin Owens has been punished for his actions several times after his heel turn at WWE Bad Blood. The most recent was after The Prizefighter hit Randy Orton with a piledriver last week on SmackDown.
After The American Nightmare expressed his desire to confront KO during the latest edition of the show, the latter, in a self-recorded promo, claimed that he was not allowed to enter the arena. Owens further stated that he would go face-to-face with Cody Rhodes next week. Moments later, the wrestling promotion also confirmed the same.
Kevin Owens has looked ominous since he attacked Cody Rhodes at WWE Bad Blood. It remains to be seen if the rivalry will lead to the two facing each other in a championship match.
