Rey Mysterio has revealed he sits down with son Dominik after every match he has in WWE and critiques it.

Dominik Mysterio has been wrestling in WWE since last year, getting involved with his dad's storyline with Seth Rollins, and the duo have seen gone on to win the SmackDown Tag Team Championships.

With Dominik at just 24-years-old, Rey knows his son has still got a lot to learn.

Speaking to Ryan Satin on the Out of Character podcast, Mysterio said. "Every time he wrestles, we sit down and critique the match. I told him, 'You have to pick up your speed on the 619, you're going too slow.' He said, 'I'm going at your speed.' 'You're not going at my speed.' I believe I was slowing down because I didn't think he would go as fast as I would. During training, he runs fast when he hits the ropes, but still, no one like his pops.

"We critique the match and I tell him what's good and what he needs to improve on. I tell him what he did really good on because you have to boost his morale too. I'm shooting with him and being straight. A lot of things, like kick outs, I'll tell him, 'You have to make sure you throw your body. The fans need to see you're kicking out.'

"I nitpick a lot and am a perfectionist. I try to make sure I point every single thing out to make sure he improves. When he does better the next time, I tell him, 'way better than last time.' That's our process."
