Among other topics, he discussed his time in Vince McMahon's company.In 2017, Mike debuted at WWE Money in the Bank along with his wife, Maria Kanellis.

The couple was released from the company in April 2020.During the interview, Mike Bennett spoke about battling addiction during his time in WWE. He mentioned that Road Dogg, Billy Kidman, and Goldust would often come and check on him. He was also grateful that WWE did not fire him while he was battling his inner demons.Here's what Bennett had to say:"When I give them credit, I'm giving credit to people like Road Dogg who would come up to me and check on me. I'm giving credit to guys like Billy Kidman who would come up and check on me or Goldust who would come up and talk to me. The boys. The boys always looked out for me. And that's when I say yes, WWE helped me. They did. The guys in the company helped me and I will still say this, and people will try to manipulate my words all the time. I'm very thankful I wasn't fired because I wanted to work at the company at that time. And so like, the fact that they didn't fire me for being a drug addict, went a long way with me now."You can watch the full video here.It's My Wrestling Podcast 🎄@ItsMyWrestlPodNEW EPISODE 🎙Check out my interview with @RealMikeBennett!✅ Ring of Honor!✅ Working with @MariaLKanellis!✅ His time in WWE and the 24/7 Title!✅ The lure of AEW!✅ MUCH MORE! 📹 - youtu.be/QXIxvYUran4🍎 - podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/mik…📻 - linktr.ee/itsmywrestling…5:06 AM · Nov 6, 20216156NEW EPISODE 🎙Check out my interview with @RealMikeBennett!✅ Ring of Honor!✅ Working with @MariaLKanellis!✅ His time in WWE and the 24/7 Title!✅ The lure of AEW!✅ MUCH MORE! 📹 - youtu.be/QXIxvYUran4🍎 - podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/mik…📻 - linktr.ee/itsmywrestling… https://t.co/Aweh1GdsUIMike Bennett clarifies that WWE did not pay for his rehabDuring the interview, Bennett also cleared the air regarding his rehab.
