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.

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.

That came after portions of a sex tape of Hogan - whose real name is Terry Bollea - with Heather Clem, previously the wife of radio personality Bubba the Love Sponge. 

His claims that got him the win after three years of highly publicized proceedings, in a case where his lawyers argued the privacy of many Americans was at stake. 

Gawker's lawyers, meanwhile, shot back that the case could hurt freedom of the press in the United States - a stance that ultimately failed to sway a six-person jury.

Afterward, a retired Hogan once again emerged victorious, adding to his some 367 wins in the wrestling ring.

In the months that followed, Donald Trump made waves in his first year in office, as  Republican strategist and former Trump adviser Roger Stone reportedly urged Hogan to follow Arnold Schwarzenegger's example and take a stab at running for governor.

He was poised to challenge then Governor Rick Scott in the Republican primary if so, but again decided against it.

Instead, Ron DeSantis emerged victorious before eventually beating Democrat Andrew Gillum by a few thousand votes, in what many viewed as an upset. 

At the time, Hogan suggested that while politics don't really interest him, that could be jubject change, telling TMZ in a self-filmed video, 'It's a no... for now.'

Friday's demonstration shows how the world champ may have now reconsidered - ready to take that first foray into politics, as Trump did before him.

His remarks came a few days after another Fox News appearance earlier in the week to promote the launch of his 'Real American' Beer. 

'I had this crazy idea because I saw how competitive the beer industry was, and I saw what happened with Bud Light and their whole promotion that crashed and burned,; Hogan said, referring to the widely seen fallout from the Dylan Mulvaney-Bud Light partnership last year.

'I want to create a beer that will bring America back together, one beer at a time,' he said at a point during the more recent interview. Now retired, Hogan - real name Terry Bollea - is a decorated member of the WWE Hall of Fame

'I saw this crazy open lane,' he continued, adding 'We’re much more alike, than we are different.'

'I just thought "This is so much bigger than politics,"' he went on. 

'Because if you can’t communicate and you can’t talk, you’re not going to get anywhere with your discussions, your decisions, or with people getting along. 

'I want to create a beer that will bring America back together, one beer at a time.'
