Lilian Garcia

Lilian Garcia is a former ring announcer who worked for the World Wrestling Federation/Entertainment organization from 1999-2009. She is notable for being the first female on-camera to stay with the company for ten years, gaining her the nickname "The Decade Diva". She is also an accomplished musician, and has taken part in some WWE storylines over the years. She has only competed in one match through her entire career.

WWE Career
Lilian Garcia began her WWF career in 1999. By August, she was involved in her first storyline as Jeff Jarrett attacked her for announcing his loss to Luna Vachon.

Lilian would invoke the ire of several Superstars and Divas during her WWF/E tenure, once calling Miss Kitty by that name, in spite of her wanting to be known as "The Kat". The Kat would respond to this by throwing Lilian into a pool of chocolate pudding.

Lilian Garcia was also notable for singing "The Star Spangled Banner" at multiple house shows, and even at several pay-per-views. She got to sing the national anthem on the first SmackDown following the 9/11 attacks.

In mid-2002, Lilian competed in her first and only match in the company, defeating announcer Howard Finkel in an evening-gown tuxedo match with the help of Stacy Keibler and Trish Stratus.

In June 2005, Lilian's next storyline came in a romantic story with Viscera. The angle ended at Vengeance 2005 when Viscera opted to go with the Godfather's Hos. That year, Lilian also posed for the WWE Divas swimsuit issue. Months later, the Viscera-Lilian story would be brought up when Viscera proposed to Lilian, only to be interrupted by Umaga.

In 2006, Lilian was sidelined with injury when she was accidentally knocked off of the ring apron by Charlie Haas. The accident resulted in a sprained wrist. The accident was turned into a storyline, with Viscera going after Charlie Haas to defend the honor of Lilian. The storyline ended when Viscera hit her with the Samoan Drop while she was confronting Charlie Haas.

Lilian then took part in another Divas publication in 2007, this time Divas Do San Antonio.

In 2007, she was humiliated by having her skirt ripped off by Bobby Lashley after Vince McMahon attempted to hide his head underneath her skirt after having it shaved bald. The result of this led to a spike in Internet searches for the ring announcer. She later disappeared for a few months to recover from a skiing accident.

In 2007, she released her first Spanish album, and began feuding with Jillian Hall over who was the better singer.

In September 2009, it was announced Lilian was leaving the WWE after spending ten years with the organization.



Post-WWE Wrestling Appearances
Lilian has made sporadic appearances on Monday night Raw, singing the Star Spangled Banner and doing announcing here and there. She also filled in for Justin Roberts after most of the Raw roster was stranded overseas in Europe due to a volcanic eruption.
