Lilian Garcia Shed Tears During WrestleMania 35 Main Event

Lilian Garcia was proud to see women main eventing WrestleMania after 35 years.

This past April at WrestleMania 35, for the first time in the event's history, women closed the show as Ronda Rousey, Charlotte Flair and Becky Lynch competed for the RAW and SmackDown Women's Championships in a Triple-Threat match. It was an inspirational and monumental moment for many in attendance and those watching from their own personal spaces and in attendance was current Professional Fighters League in-cage announcer Lilian Garcia. Lilian was on the call for the WrestleMania Women's Battle Royal earlier in the show and came back inside the stadium for the main event. She told Sporting News during an interview that she shed tears during the match because of how big and monumental the moment was.

"I was so excited that I got to be at WrestleMania, announcing the Women's Battle Royal for the second year in a row, which was awesome. So, when Becky and Charlotte and Ronda went to the ring, I snuck out there and watched it from the corner, so that I could really experience all of the fans and the music and the whole energy of it that night. I had tears streaming down my face because what an amazing feat at 35 years to finally have that moment of (women) main-eventing WrestleMania. I thought it was incredible that they got that." Lilian expressed.

 

Lilian Garcia invited WWE Hall Of Famer Mick Foley to see her live in action at PFL and Lilian spoke highly of her friendship with Mick Foley. Foley was praised recently for his contributions to the Squared Circle Sisters GoFundMe for the late Ashley Massaro.
