Tonight on Raw, Lacey Evans announced that she’s pregnant in order to avoid Charlotte Flair attacking her.
According to reports, Evans is legitimately pregnant in real life. The news was first reported by Wrestling Inc.
Evans was scheduled to face Asuka at the Elimination Chamber PPV next Sunday for the Raw Women’s Championship, but she’ll no longer be wrestling in that match or for the foreseeable future. WWE hasn’t announced if Asuka will face someone else instead.
Evans’ announcement tonight on Raw came during a tag team match, where she teamed with Peyton Royce to face Charlotte Flair and Asuka. Evans didn’t wrestle for the entire match, then was tagged in by Royce, but ran away from Charlotte and said that she’s pregnant. It was heavily insinuated that Ric Flair is the father, though he obviously isn’t in real life.
Evans is married to her high school boyfriend and has one daughter, Summer, who has appeared on WWE TV.
