No such proof can exist within consistent axioms - to add 1 to Graham's number would generate a larger number, and so, by this counterexample, Graham's number cannot be the largest.
It is the largest used in a mathematical proof, because all proofs have been noted in a proof 'by exhaustion', in which all cases (in this case, proofs) have been verified to have smaller constants .

Is there a number bigger than graham's number?
Yes, there is, but it has no name, for grahams number was and is still the largest number with a name. To make a number larger than grahams number, you just need to make grahams number 1, but it would not have a name because it is not official, and if you try to write it down, you could not, because all matter in the universe transformed into pen ink could not write it down. And if you tried to type it, your computer or whatever you where typing it on would fail.
