Hulk Hogan is used to taking down his opponents in the wrestling ring. But the former WWE member has recently advised he is up for a new kind of fight.
The political debate.
In a video posted by TMZ, Hogan discusses his former relationship with WWE and his plans for making America a better place... sort of.
Hogan still considers WWE his family and holds no hard feelings against World Wrestling Entertainment chairman and CEO, Vince McMahon, for permanently kicking him out of the WWE ring.
This comes after reports surfaced of Hogan using the N-word during a racially charged rant in a sex tape made 8 years ago.
Various celebs came to Hogan's defense, however McMahon was not having it.
In TMZ's video, passer-by continue to show their love for the seasoned wrestler - giving him hugs and taking pictures, while Hogan answers questions from the TMZ cameraman. Apparently the 62-year old holds no ill-will against Vince McMahon or WWE for wiping his information from the WWE site.
"WWE is the best," he says. "I love those guys. That's my family!" he continues.
TMZ continues to ask if he has any problems with the WWE CEO, to which Hulk jokes, "The only hard feelings I have for Vince McMahon is when I get him in the ring again. It'll be a replay of Wrestlemania."
Then he was asked if he could take down any presidential candidate who would it be, in which he surprisingly retorts, he does not want to fight any candidates in the ring, " I want to be Trump's running mate."
Hulk is not the only celeb hitting the campaign trail. During last nights Video Music Awards, Kanye took a moment during his Vanguard acceptance speech to announce his candidacy for president... in 2020.
"And yes, as you probably could've guessed by this moment. I plan to run for president in 2020," exclaims Yeezy amidst screaming fans and presidential supporters?
Although, he also admitted to being under the influence of some sort contraband, this may in fact be Kanye's next big move. He is always surprising his fandom. However, before he hits he campaign trail, Yeezy nation is probably asking one final question. Can he just drop SWISH already?
