So it\u2019s the right time for me to be gone from WWE for sure. I can spend way more time with him which is priceless.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Garcia said her dad tried to convince her to stay with WWE, but she knew that wasn&#8217;t the right decision.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I can\u2019t even imagine being on the road right now. If I was still there, my heart. I would literally take off and be on a plane and be like, &#8216;What the hell I shouldn\u2019t be on a plane right now.&#8217; I want to enjoy every second I can with him. So I\u2019m glad I\u2019m not there for that reason. I miss the fans tremendously, I miss the show, I miss everybody I work with. I wish I would\u2019ve even gotten to say goodbye, I didn\u2019t even get to say goodbye. It was just these decisions that were happening so quick and everything. But I do have to say one thing. WWE fans are incredible.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Garcia said she&#8217;s still making herself available for any type of special event or special project that she could be part of, so she&#8217;s not completely done with WWE.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If they were to call me to do something special&#8230;totally. I&#8217;d be all over it. It&#8217;s just a place that has really been good to me, and has been a wild ride,&#8221; Garcia said.<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/youtu.be\/EVjuO9L_v_c<\/p>\n<div class=\"pwtor-end-article-groups pwtor-entity-placement\" id=\"pwtor-2549549527\"><div id=\"pwtor-1374328336\"><div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280\" id=\"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\", slotId: \"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\nTHANK YOU FOR VISITING<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Former WWE ring announcer Lilian Garcia addressed her decision to leave WWE to care for her ailing father on &#8220;The Tomorrow Show with Keven Undergaro.&#8221; &#8220;Being at WWE is no longer an option,&#8221; Garcia said. <a class=\"mh-excerpt-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/2016\/08\/09\/video-lilian-garcia-explains-left-wwe\/\" title=\"Video &#8211; Lilian Garcia further explains why she left WWE\">[&#8230;]<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":28676,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"episode_type":"","audio_file":"","podmotor_file_id":"","podmotor_episode_id":"","cover_image":"","cover_image_id":"","duration":"","filesize":"","filesize_raw":"","date_recorded":"","explicit":"","block":"","itunes_episode_number":"","itunes_title":"","itunes_season_number":"","itunes_episode_type":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[3433,2719,3432,71],"class_list":["post-28675","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news_wwe","tag-keven-undergaro","tag-lilian-garcia","tag-the-tomorrow-show","tag-wwe"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/post\/2016\/08\/LilianGarcia.png","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28675","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=28675"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28675\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":28677,"href":"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28675\/revisions\/28677"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/28676"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=28675"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=28675"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=28675"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
