Garcia introduced Kofi Kingston during WWE Monday Night Raw.
Lilian Garcia’s appearance on the May 13, episode of WWE Monday Night Raw was something of a last-minute call, according to the former ring announcer.
Garcia appeared on the show and was introduced by current Raw ring announcer Samantha Irvin. Together, the pair introduced a King of the Ring quarter-final match with Irvin introducing GUNTHER while Garcia introduced Kofi Kingston.

Taking to her Instagram Story, Garcia shared all about her appearance on Raw. The announcer shared that at first she was only at the show to say hi and catch up with friends before plans changed.
“I just stopped by to say hi to everybody. Next thing you know, I was on the show. It was so much fun. Triple H, thank you so much for including me in the show. Doing that with Samantha was so awesome.”
Garcia was also grateful for the response the WWE Universe gave her and admitted that she misses the weekly roar of the crowd.
“The fans and the reception that I got, you guys are amazing. I miss you. I’m just so glad that I can pop in every now and then. I hope you guys had fun tonight because there’s nothing like a live Raw event. Until next time, I love you.”
Garcia was with WWE from 1999 to 2009 but made a one-off return in April 2020 after the Eyjafjallajökull volcanic eruption left Justin Roberts overseas. She returned full-time in 2011 before departing again in 2016 and has made sporadic appearances for the company ever since.
