Former WWE Superstar Mason Ryan stopped by Under the Mat Radio to discuss his time in WWE, the surprising occupation that his dad has and what he's doing now. Here are some of the highlights, you can check out the full interview by clicking here.

His WWE debut:

"I got interfere in a match with John Cena and CM Punk it doesn't get much bigger than that. I really loved working with those guys Punk and now Bray Wyatt also Curtis Axel and David Otunga. I got to have Punk (CM) as a mentor. During LIVE events I got to watch ringside at Punk and Cena work in matches and learn from that it was a incredible experience."

The difference of working in the ring with wrestling boots as opposed to sneakers:

"(Laughing) if you don't have good foot work it can be tricky but if you know what you are doing then it shouldn't be too much of a problem. Boots tend to be heavier and hard to move in so if you add a pair of sneakers or tennis shoes it's almost better because they're lighter."

Looking like Batista:

"Yeah man I get it all the time, I have long hair now and I didn't think I looked like him but people would come up to me and say, 'Hey! You know who you look like?' I say, 'let me take a guess.' I see the resemblance facially ? its quite strange."
