Lilian Garcia Says Charlie Haas Had No Idea He Knocked Her Off The Ropes, Was Confused When Crowd Chanted For Her

On the June 5, 2006 episode of WWE Raw, Charlie Haas entered the ring and hit the ropes as part of his warm up.

Unfortunately, Lilian Garcia had not quite got off the apron, and Haas ran into her as she was trying to exit. Lilian fell to the floor and Haas posed for the camera.

"The one with Charlie Haas, that was an accident," Lilian told Chris Van Vliet on Insight. "I'm getting out of the ring, he's coming in to run against the ropes. He doesn't see me. I'm holding on, but he comes charging. I go off like a slingshot and land on my left wrist, which I tore my ligament. You hear me yelling and screaming. He doesn't even know. He locks up with John Morrison and the crowd is chanting my name as they're taking me out. He's locked in with him and, Morrison told me this, he's like, 'Why in the hell are they chanting Lilian's name in the middle of our match?' John is like, 'Dude, you slingshot her out of the ring.' He's like, 'I did?' He had no idea. I bandage up. It hurt. Just another day at the job [laughs]."

Morrison won the match against Haas in just over four minutes.

Elsewhere during the interview, Lilian commented on her return to ring announcing for WWE. You can find her full comments by clicking here.
