The 'Take Me Out' host has been practicing his moves in the ring at his local fitness centre, and he feels he has the potential to go professional.
He told the Daily Star newspaper: "I've been doing wrestling at my gym - and I love it.
"I've done it for a couple of weeks now. It's something I could really do."
The 44-year-old star already has a wrestler nickname, Big Daddy McGuinness, which he used during his charity match against Harry Judd for Sport Relief in 2016, in which the McFly drummer defeated him.
ITV bosses are said to be interested in recruiting the comedian for the rebooted series of 'World Of Sport Wrestling', which is making a comeback after 30 years off screen, though the role might be outside of the ring.
Following the success of the 2016 New Year's Eve special, which attracted over a million viewers, ITV has decided to commission a 10-part series featuring some of the UK's top grapplers.
The shows will be recorded in front of a live audience at studios in Norwich with the competitors battling for the coveted WOS Wrestling Championship belt and the series will also feature backstage interviews and action from the roster.
Tom McLennan - Creative Director of ITV Studios Entertainment - said: "There is a massive indie wrestling scene in the UK and a strong nostalgia for the wrestling shows of our youth. 'WOS Wrestling' will combine the best of the past with incredible talent available today to make a fun, exciting and thrilling show that the whole family can enjoy."
