WWE legend Lilian Garcia shows off stunning beach body at 53 as ex-ring announcer sends Instagram wild with bikini shots
WWE legend Lilian Garcia has sent Instagram wild after showing off her stunning beach body at 53.
The former ring announcer celebrated the beaches in California reopening following the coronavirus pandemic with a series of stunning bikini snaps.
She captioned one picture: "Woooo hooooo! Here in Los Angeles, California the beaches have finally reopened!!!!!
"It’s another step in the direction of moving past this nightmare we have all been in.
"For me personally the beach has always been a place of serenity where I can process my thoughts and ground myself from the stresses of the world. And the fact it was taken away from all of us made me appreciate it even more!!"
Garcia, who last made an appearance on RAW in July 2019, was hailed by fans for the shots.
One said: "Your body is freakin amazing!!!!"
Another said: "Damn girl, damn!!!"
A third added: "Goals!! Dang mama! You look amazing."
Garcia remains a fan favourite among the WWE Universe for her stint as a ring announcer for Vince McMahon's company from 1999 to 2008.
She then returned for a five-year stint in 2011 and has since made sporadic appearances since her departure in 2016.
The Spanish-American's first day on the job during WWE's fabled Attitude Era, she replaced the legendary 20-year veteran Howard Finkel.
And she recently paid tribute to the late Hall of Famer for giving her the confidence to take over announcing duties during her podcast Chasing Glory.
She said: "I didn't know yet what the job was going to be. In my audition, I did backstage interviews. But it wasn't until that day, Monday, that I was told at 3:30 that afternoon, that was I was taking over Howard Finkel's job as the brand new ring announcer for Monday Night RAW.
"Talk about that moment being so heavy, so scary. I was emotional too because for replacing such a legend as Howard Finkel, I knew how much he loved that job.
"I looked at him, I'll never forget, I looked at him. I'm like, 'How in the world am I going to do this?' He looked right at me and said, 'Because you can and you will. I'll be right there to help you.'

"And that's exactly what Howard did. So selfless. He could have been bitter about that because he had been the announcer there for 20 years.
"When you heard the voice of Monday Night RAW, you knew it was Howard Finkel. You heard those huge pay-per-views and WrestleManias.
"That was Howard Finkel, and here I come along with zero training and I'm supposed to step in those shoes?"
