Cody Rhodes Is Already A Top Merchandise Seller For WWE
Cody Rhodes' 'American Nightmare' shirts were a huge hit at WrestleMania 38.
Unsurprisingly, given the enduring levels of buzz surrounding his WWE return, Cody Rhodes is already a top merchandise seller for the promotion.
PWInsider's Mike Johnson reports that WWE sold out of every single 'American Nightmare' t-shirt available for sale across WrestleMania 38 weekend. This includes during 'Mania itself at AT&T Stadium on 2 and 3 April and at the WrestleMania AXXESS Superstore, which was set up around the supercard.
As well as working his first WWE match in six years at 'Mania, defeating Seth Rollins as the Raw star's mystery opponent, Rhodes was a special panellist at the AXXESS Superstore.
Cody currently has several different t-shirt designs available for purchase on Shop.WWE.com.
Currently the talk of the wrestling world after effectively crossing over from WWE's closest rival, AEW, Rhodes made further headlines with an emotional promo on WWE's post-WrestleMania 38 episode of Raw. Touching on becoming a free agent in February, his decision to come back to the market leaders, and his father Dusty (for whom Cody has vowed to win a world championship), it closed on Rhodes shaking hands with Rollins.
WWE is yet to indicate what's next for Cody following the 'Mania win.
