Lilian Garcia Details Painful In-Ring Accident With Charlie Haas

Longtime WWE ring announcer Lilian Garcia appeared on Insight With Chris Van Vliet, where she discussed a number of topics, including an incident in which she was knocked off the ring apron by Charlie Haas on a June 2006 episode of RAW.

Garcia said, “The one with Charlie Haas, that was an accident. I’m getting out of the ring, he’s coming in to run against the ropes. He doesn’t see me. I’m holding on, but he comes charging. I go off like a slingshot and land on my left wrist, which I tore my ligament. You hear me yelling and screaming. He doesn’t even know.”

On how the fans confused the wrestlers when they were chanting her name:

“He locks up with John Morrison and the crowd is chanting my name as they’re taking me out. He’s locked in with him and, Morrison told me this, he’s like, ‘Why in the hell are they chanting Lilian’s name in the middle of our match?’ John is like, ‘Dude, you slingshotted her out of the ring.’ He’s like, ‘I did?’ He had no idea. I bandage up. It hurt. Just another day at the job [laughs].”
