On social media, former WWE announcer and legend Lillian Garcia shared photos featuring both wrestlers, while hinting at possible friction between them. Garcia’s post drew attention to the subtle changes in their dynamic, raising the question of whether their relationship might be on the verge of a breakdown.
“Being happy for others will always be one of my favorite things to do. 🫶 So beyond proud of both @yaonlylivvonce & @raquelwwe ! 👏👏 Liv… what a moment. Winning the 2026 Women’s Royal Rumble is legendary. 👑 And Raquel… whew. The way you went straight at @stephanie.vaquer in that street fight Monday? Fierce. 🔥 But let’s be honest… this photo was all smiles a few months ago… and now? I’m feeling a little storm cloud forming between you two. 🥴⚡️WWE Universe… are we watching a future collision course… or can this powerhouse friendship survive what’s coming?” wrote Garcia.
