Former WWE announcer Lilian Garcia’s father passed away on Sunday after a hard-fought battle with cancer.
Garcia says she’s obviously emotional after his passing, but paying tribute to her dad’s life is very important at this moment — so she plans to work with a charity that assists veterans, like her father.
As we previously reported, Garcia left WWE in August to be with her dad during his battle with bladder cancer and multiple myeloma. She returned for 1-night this month to sing at Tribute to the Troops.
The charity Lilian plans to work with is called Fisher House Foundation and they’re best known for a network of comfort homes where military/veterans’ families can stay at no cost while a loved one is receiving treatment. If you’d like to donate CLICK HERE.

ESPN caused wrestling fans to shout “Woo” by teasing a first glimpse of the upcoming Ric Flair 30 for 30 documentary Nature Boy.
The wrestling legend retired four years ago as a record 16-time world champion. As detailed by Grantland’s Shane Ryan in 2011, the limousine-riding, jet-flying son of a gun had some tumultuous troubles outside of the squared circle.
According to Sports Illustrated‘s Richard Deitsch, the ESPN film will feature interviews from other WCW and WWE icons, including Triple H, The Undertaker, Shawn Michaels, Mick Foley, Arn Anderson, Sting and Flair’s daughter, Ashley, who is currently the WWE Raw women’s champion using the ring name Charlotte Flair.
The brief trailer didn’t give much away, but it offered a taste of the highly anticipated documentary, set to air in 2017.

WWE Hall of Famer Sting stars in a new spoof video put out Tuesday by the Dallas Cowboys… and it shows what things would be like if he was hired to be the team’s “intimidation coach.”
The retired Superstar is shown telling a camera crew that boredom set in after he hung up his boots, so he decided to take a position with the Cowboys in an interesting role.
Best part of the video is Sting walking around doing various office things … like getting held up by security for bringing his bat into the office, chatting with various co-workers and more.
Zeke Elliot and Jason Witten also make an appearance in the footage.
