Saturday: Meet Ted Arcidi in Stockholm, NJ

Ted Arcidi will appear for a special Meet & Greet on Saturday, April 5, 2025, from 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM at The Wrestling Collector, 2828 State Route 23, Stockholm, NJ. The store will host this event where fans can meet the legendary strongman and wrestling star known as "Mr. 705." Tickets are available the day of the event.

Ted Arcidi is a former professional wrestler and world-record-holding powerlifter who made history by becoming the first man to officially bench press over 700 pounds in competition. During his time in the WWF in the mid-1980s, Arcidi was billed as the "World’s Strongest Man"—the first person the company ever promoted with that title. His unmatched strength and massive frame set him apart in the ring, leading to memorable appearances against some of the top stars of the era. Arcidi’s legacy lives on as both a pioneering force in strength athletics and a powerful presence in professional wrestling history.
