Wrestling superstar Hulk Hogan, whose real name is Terry Gene Bollea, is scheduled to speak at the Republican National Convention before former President Donald Trump on Thursday.
Others from the wrestling and fighting world, including UFC CEO Dana White and WWE co-founder Linda McMahon, are also scheduled to speak on the convention’s final day.
In June, Bollea, 70, said he was willing to run for office and would “rule with an iron fist.”
“We need somebody in there that’s got some common sense, you know what I’m saying? So if you need a president or a vice president, I’ll volunteer and take this country over, and I’ll rule with an iron fist,” Hogan told the hosts of “Fox & Friends.”

Hogan had considered running for Florida Senate in 2018 but ultimately decided against it.
The WWE Hall of Famer has been promoting his new “Real American Beer.” He said he was inspired to start his beer company after Bud Light’s Dylan Mulvaney fiasco.

“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. I saw this crazy open lane,” Hogan said.
