5 common pre-match rituals followed by WWE superstars

#3 Praying and meditating

Mysterio is a devout Christian

A lot of professional wrestlers are spiritual people who have a firm belief in the almighty and his influence upon their lives and careers. Regardless of your faith, you have to respect those who swear by their own and use it as a way to improve themselves.

WWE Superstars can be seen sending out a prayer to the almighty for good luck just before walking out to wrestle. This is mainly to help them perform their job safely and to put on a good show.

Another popular spiritual technique used is meditation which helps calm the mind, relax the body and is an ideal method of prepping for a frantic match in front of a pumped up live audience.

Legends such as Rey Mysterio and Shawn Michaels – devout Christians, the both of them – are famous for their pre-match prayers.
