Who Is Replacing Justin Roberts On WWE RAW Tonight?, "Total Divas" Finale Airdate
- A new ring announcer will take the helm tonight on Raw after WWE exercised its option to not renew the contract of Justin Roberts last Monday. On Wednesday, Mike Johnson of PWInsider.com said after speaking with multiple people in WWE that Eden is expected to replace Roberts as the ring announcer of Raw whereas Lilian Garcia will remain the ring announcer on Tuesday nights at SmackDown tapings. He did however note that until Raw takes place tonight, this decision can always change. MetsFan4Ever, a former WWE backstage worker who has broken WWE news and produced multiple shows scripts on Reddit.com, is claiming otherwise.
He wrote this afternoon after hearing from people at the site of tonight's show in Kansas City, "For the time being, Lilian Garcia will once again take over the role of lead WWE ring announcer. Lilian will be announcing Raw while Eden Stiles will announce SmackDown."
Garcia is traveling with WWE today after handling ring announcing duties for the company's two-day tour of Mexico. Before returning to the company in 2011, she handled ring announcing for Raw from 1999 to 2009, becoming the first WWE Diva to appear for the promotion for a decade.
- The mid-season finale for the ongoing third season of Total Divas airs next Sunday at 9:00 p.m. on E!. The episode will center on Eva Marie's wedding day and Natalya's marriage heading on a downward spiral.
Speaking of Total Divas, last night's episodes replay today on E! at 5:00 and 6:00 p.m.
