Houston, you might have a celebrity mayor in 2020.

After making headlines over the weekend, former WWE wrestler Booker T. Huffman toyed with the idea of running for the mayor's office in 2019. This prompted him to release an official statement in a tweet confirming his intentions.

"I am happy to report that after great deliberation and with the counsel of my family and friends, I have decided to run for the office of Mayor in the 2019 race," Huffman's letter reads.

He goes on to describe his love for the Bayou City and how he strives to properly and honorably represent his hometown. He also describes his achievements as a Hall of Fame wrestler and a businessman.

"I believe in my heart that all Houstonians, regardless of their economic circumstances, deserve the same opportunities to build a better life for themselves," Huffman's letter reads. "In the coming months ahead I will make additional announcements as necessary regarding my campaign and our team."

The hashtag #Booker2020 has already started following the celebrity's announcement (which is being confused with Senator Cory Booker) and many fans are pledging their votes for the former wrestler.

"I look forward to having a dialogue with the voters of Houston and if I am so privileged to serve, I will fight for them as hard as I fought for myself and my family over the last 30 years," the letter ends.
