Lilian Garcia has had an amazing WWE career that spans more than 25 years. She sang the national anthem days after 9/11 on SmackDown, shared the screen with the likes of Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, and stood as ring announcer during WrestleMania. However, the powerhouse voice is gearing up for one of her biggest assignments yet on December 13. That’s when Garcia does introductions for the final match of John Cena against Gunther during Saturday Night’s Main Event live on Peacock.
The GOAT of WWE has been on a farewell tour running all over the world with his curtain call set for the show. Ahead of the milestone, we caught up with Garcia to reminisce about her favorite Cena moments and what being a part of the “Last Time Is Now” means. Garcia also talks about re-signing with the company and finding love again with former wrestler Patrick Ellrich after hitting rock bottom.
