On October 21st, Lilian Garcia made her return to WWE, taking over the ring announcing duties from Samantha Irvin on WWE Raw.
Irvin had announced her departure from WWE on Monday afternoon before WWE Raw.
Speaking on an Instagram Q&A, Garcia gave more insight into her WWE return.
"When I got the call, just a few weeks ago, I got the call to come back. I felt like this was my dad and his gift, bringing me to this again. I have missed you guys and I will say that when my music hit and I came out in Philadelphia, I was not prepared for the love. I feel like this massive wall came through me with this rush and this energy. I thank you so much," she said.
Lilian explained that she stepped away in 2016 to take care of her father. She said they gave him two weeks to three months to live, and he lived for five months, but passed away on Christmas Day.
Lilian did not travel with WWE to Saudi Arabia, and will not be the ring announcer for Monday's WWE Raw. She is set to return next Monday.
