'It doesn't matter race, creed, colour, religion, sex - what matters is if you entertain. The people able to drum up business and entertain are compensated,' he offered.

'In terms of that, I have been compensated well. I've been very well-rewarded, both monetarily and intrinsically. I love my work,' he added.
The co-hosts asked John if he had any 'secret TV shows' he watched 'when no one is around'.
'If you're asking if I have a secret thing I'm entertained by, that no one else knows [it's] Korean pop, K-pop,' he revealed.

The well-known philanthropist revealed his favourite K-pop band is 'obviously BTS', also known as the Bangtan Boys.
'I would love to see your fiancée [fellow wrestler Nikki Bella] walking down the aisle to K-pop,' joked co-host Abby Coleman.
'Stranger things have happened my friend, never say never,' he laughed.
