10 Unlikely Superstars That Deserve A Place In WWE Hall Of Fame

More than an announcer, Lillian was a fixture on our screens for almost two decades, so much so that it still feels wrong watching weekly TV without her.

Known for her pitch-perfect announcing, Lillian found success as a vocalist before (and during) her WWE run. Given the honor of singing "America the Beautiful" before three different WrestleMania events, Lillian joined the illustrious company of Aretha Franklin and Ray Charles in doing so. Her rendition of "The Star-Spangled Banner" on the 13 September 2001 episode of SmackDown remains one of the most heart-wrenching moment in WWE history.

Occasionally becoming involved in angles, Lillian was not one to turn down even the most dangerous ideas. Sometimes ending up in questionable, gratuitous scenarios, or an unnecessary physical altercation, she would have every right to take the huff, yet was unquestionably always a model professional. Even when acting as a muse for Viscera (at that point 'The World's Largest Love Machine') she took it in her stride.

After leaving to pursue a full-time music career in 2008, Garcia returned full-time at Vince McMahon's request; such was the regard in which she was held. Her sporadic appearances since a second retirement are still well-received. The Attitude Era was better for Lillian's work.
