| King of the World: Chris Jericho |
CHRIS: How do I prepare for my matches? Well, usually right before I warm up, throw a few kicks and stuff and get in the
right mind-set. I usually say a little prayer. I always pace around, I usually pace right before I go. Usually about ten minutes
before the match until I walk out the door you'll see me walking back and forth. I don't usually talk to anybody. You've got
to get into the right, proper psychological mind-set.

I've had long hair since I was in high school. Because of the music I listen to and stuff, I've just always liked that look.
