While Baron Corbin is a big listener of metal, Finn Banor prefers some soothing music to calm him down.

Brock Lesnar once revealed that his favourite artists include Metallica, Motley Crue, AC/DC, and Twister Sister.

Similarly, Bray Wyatt opened up in an interview with Metal Injection, and revealed his favourites. He shared, “Easily my favorites are Pantera and Rage Against The Machine.

On the other hand Aleister Black also possesses a rich taste in music. He shared in an interview, “I go through so much music on a daily basis! I’ve been listening to Ghost a lot – Rats gets me pumped. Like, how is it even possible that a band like Ghost are becoming the biggest metal band in the world? So I’m on a big Ghost kick at the moment, and I’m on a big Darkthrone kick at the moment. I’m pretty much going between Ghost, Darkthrone and Bathory.”
