“The World’s Strongest Man” is officially back in the WWE family.

Mark Henry has signed a new Legends contract with WWE, marking a big return for the powerhouse after his stint with All Elite Wrestling. The signing was confirmed by Ringside Collectibles, who also dropped another major update—fans will soon be getting brand-new Mattel action figures of the Hall of Famer.

“Mark Henry has signed a WWE Legends deal which includes new Mattel WWE Figures,” the company announced. They also added a fan poll to stir excitement: “Which Mattel figure of The World’s Strongest Man Mark Henry do you want to see first?”

Henry, a former World Heavyweight Champion and one of the strongest men to ever step foot in a WWE ring, parted ways with AEW in 2024 after serving in both an on-screen and backstage role. Now, he’s set to be featured alongside other wrestling greats under WWE’s Legends banner, which often includes new merchandise, public appearances, and even special cameos on WWE programming.
