You might think that wrestling and religion don't mix. Chris Jericho disagrees. Jericho is open about his faith in God, considering it vital to his spiritual survival. You kind of need something else, something like the Lord watching over your shoulder to make sure that nothing happens to you. It's more of an extra incentive, an extra kind of shove.
Religion is a taboo subject among some of the wrestlers.
Some are vocal about keeping religion out of the locker room. Others are not so offended, welcoming the chance to start some form of religious dialogue. For Jericho, religion rarely gets in the way of his wrestling career. Some wrestlers who have been open about their religious beliefs have had a hard time. A lot of them didn't like it.
