00:00 The 46-year-old star previously slammed Wayne 51 for turning his back on his wrestling career
00:06 in order to become an actor, but John has now confessed to making a mistake.
00:11 John, who has also made the transition into the movie business, said during a WWE press
00:16 conference, "I went about it the wrong way.
00:20 I violated his trust and I made allegations about his perspective that I knew nothing
00:25 about.
00:26 And deep down, I was a fan.
00:28 I wanted the Rock back.
00:29 I wanted to do anything to get the Rock back.
00:32 But I did it the wrong way."
00:34 The wrestler-turned-actor acknowledged that his comments weren't respectful.
00:39 John said, "I had to eat a little bit of crow.
00:42 I had to say, 'I am sorry, and I was wrong.'
00:45 Because I am sorry and I was wrong, and that's a very humbling experience.
00:49 Wayne is a hell of a guy.
00:51 I became who I despised.
00:53 I see that perspective and I understand it.
00:55 It was a great learning experience from my mistake with feuding with the Rock."
01:01 John has put his acting career on hold over recent months amid the ongoing actor strike.
01:06 However, he plans to return to the movie business at some stage in the future.
01:10 John, who his film credits include Trainwreck and Sisters, explained, "I made it perfectly
01:16 clear you can't do acting and wrestling because of the liability insurance.
01:21 If I were trying to juggle both, that's very selfish, because I'd put a whole lot of people
01:26 in the movie business out of work if something happened to me."
01:29 The film is expected to be released in the U.S. on March 8, 2019.
