Former WWE star and manager Armando Alejandro Estrada has confirmed that he has signed a multi-year deal with the company.

The news that Estrada had signed a WWE Legends deal emerged on September 13, 2024, with the former star now confirming the news himself via social media.

Addressing the new deal on Twitter, Estrada revealed that it’s a five-year arrangement, posting:

“I’m happy to announce that I have signed a 5-year Legends/Nostalgia contract w/@WWE for special appearances & merchandising, including action figures, video games, & more!

“Great to be back in the fold with them!”

Fans will likely remember Estrada as the former manager of the late Umaga, signing with WWE in 2004 and going on to become General Manager of ECW in 2007 as well as a semi-frequent in-ring performer.

Although Estrada would depart the company in 2008, he went on to return in 2010 and would remain there until 2012.

His return saw him manage Tyson Kidd in May 2011 for a very brief period before disappearing from screen until his eventual departure in June 2012.
