WWE legend Hulk Hogan teases HUGE career move as he warns 'I'll rule with an iron fist!'

Watcha gonna do when the Hulkster comes for... The Oval Office?

Wrestling icon Hulk Hogan aired such aspirations Friday during an interview with Fox & Friends promoting the launch of his American-made light lager beer.

The 70-year-old said he would never fully rule out a run for president, and that the country currently needs someone with 'common sense.'

As for a candidate, he told onlookers to look no further than the 12 Time World Champion - and that his top policy positions would also include 'a flat tax rate.'

Clearly ready for a rumble in the political arena, the WWE Hall of Famer made his intentions known.

Scroll down for video:

When asked by the show's hosts, The 70-year-old said he would never fully rule out a run for president, and that the country needs someone with 'common sense'

'We need somebody in there that’s got some common sense,' he said enthusiastically when asked about the subject.

'So, if you need a president or vice president, I'll volunteer and take this country over, and I’ll rule with an iron fist, a flat tax - nothing but common sense.

'I know right from wrong, brother,' he concluded, offering his trademark term of endearment.

The offering comes six years after the Hulkster floated the idea of a Senate run in his home state of Florida - an idea he ultimately decided against, just two years after his legal victory against Gawker Media.

I’m remembering it now. Every once in a while these clowns give us an insightful view of what they really think.

Sorry, Hogan, we already have a candidate with common sense.

His name is Donald J. Trump.

I’d rather see Ric Flair in the Oval Office: “Vladmir Putin...you got a problem with us? Then come on down and walk that aisle!”

"The Rock has done some excellent charity work. And he declares himself to be an independent. But he has supported Obama and Biden in the past. Not good signs."

And he recently said that despite endorsing Biden in 2020, he won't be publicly endorsing anyone this time around. He must have taken some heat in 2020, but that doesn't mean he isn't going to support Biden again, just that he's not going to tell anyone who he'll be voting for.

"If it’s wrestlers, then I’m voting for the Baron Von Raschke, now that the Iron Sheik has passed on..."

My father used to watch wrestling every weekend. From back then the only two wrestlers I remember were Gorgeous George, and Haystack Muldoon.

Jesse Ventura was the one who filed a defamation suit against Cris Kyle about a chapter in his book "American Sniper," where Chris claimed he punched Ventura out in a bar in 2006, after Ventura made negative remarks about SEALS. Chris was killed in June 2013, but before the incident that took his life, he swore an affidavit to the court that what he wrote in the book was the truth. Ventura's suit proceeded against Kyle's estate. In 2014, a jury awarded Ventura $500,000 for defamation and $1.3 million for unjust enrichment. Kyle's widow appealed the decision, and in June 2016, a Federal Court of Appeals vacated the $1.8 million award. Ventura tried to appeal that decision to the Supreme Court, but they declined the case.

Ventura also sued Harper-Collins who had published the book, and settled out of court with them. Once he got the money from the settlement, he withdrew his suits against the book publisher, and the Kyle estate. I think the guy is a POS to go after the estate of a man and his widow. He's as bad as the Sandy Hook parents going after Alex Jones.

As retarded as Jesse is now- he did a lot of good things as governor. He lowered the ridiculous costs of vehicle registration tabs, and shutdown vehicle emissions testing. Unfortunately, he’s a complete idiot now.

[Roddy Piper would have made for a great candidate....if he was still alive.]

He probably would have at least figured out what was happening to our society...
