Lilian Garcia returns to WWE as full-time Raw ring announcer

With Samantha Irvin’s shock exit, WWE brought back Lilian Garcia full time as the new Raw ring announcer.

Before the show went on the air, Raw commentator Joe Tessitore introduced Garcia back, who was visibly super thrilled to return, as fans gave her a standing ovation. She fist-bumped both Tessitore and Wade Barrett, who also gave her a standing ovation at ringside.

Garcia was really nervous on her first night back, making a couple of mistakes along the way as the night went by, something she admitted in her social media message after the show ended.

This is Garcia’s third full-time stint with the company. She started in late 1999 and spent 10 years as the Raw ring announcer before leaving the company to pursue a singing career. She returned in 2012 for her second stint and lasted until 2016.

The 58-year-old has made several appearances on WWE television since then, most recently this past May when Samantha Irvin welcomed back Garcia to Raw in South Carolina and handed her the mic to introduce one match.
