However, it looks like a surprising WWE Superstar has overtaken his merchandise sales. R-Truth is receiving a lot of applause for his current run and is one of the most entertaining Superstars on RAW. After his recent involvement with The Judgement Day, the Stamford-based promotion released a special merchandise collection for R-Truth. It seems that it has gotten more sales than CM Punk’s merchandise and is topping the charts.
Fans filled in the comments, talking about Truth getting over Punk and LA Knight in terms of merchandise. A user said, “R-Truth outselling Punk” Others talked about how huge of a draw Truth is, “Truth is a draw,” and “R-Truth is more of a draw than the top stars you love to see it”. A follower was happy with R-Truth being at the top of the list and said, “Couldn’t be happier for R-Truth”.
People are shocked to see the Truth at the top of the list. The list also includes CM Punk, Roman Reigns, Jey Uso, and other top WWE Superstars. LA Knight and Cody Rhodes were two of the superstars who were not featured on the list. Given their rise in business, users talked about the disappearance of both superstars.
R-Truth’s recent involvement has overshadowed CM Punk on RAW
CM Punk has been on RAW for the past couple of weeks with his witty personality and charisma. While it still feels surreal to a lot of fans to see Punk again in the WWE, for many, he has already been overshadowed. R-Truth made his WWE return at Survivor Series 2023, the same event where Punk returned. Since his return, he has been in a storyline involving The Judgement Day.
During one of his recent segments, Truth talked about the love he has for the stable. It proved to be one of the funniest segments on RAW and got good reactions from the crowd. On the other hand, Punk is determined to win the Royal Rumble match and the main event of WrestleMania 40. He was interrupted by Drew McIntyre on the episode of RAW on January 8, 2024, after which a promo battle took place between the two.
