In an appearance on Insight with Chris Van Vliet, Michelle was asked about her real-life feud with Melina. It was all about having different backgrounds before going into WWE, with Michelle coming from modeling rather than the independent circuit.

“You know, she came from the independent scene and the wrestling school and paving that way. So for her, she felt like this opportunity was earned and deserved. It looked to many that I’m just coming from Hollywood and just popping on TV, and I get this opportunity, I just paved my way differently in LA,” Michelle said. [H/T chrisvanvliet.com]

They eventually settled their differences and became close, though they try to turn it into a work for fans during wrestling conventions from time-to-time.

Candice Michelle needed beef with Melina to be better in WWE

Speaking on the Ten Count podcast back in 2023, Candice Michelle further opened up about the animosity between her Melina. Michelle didn’t understand it at first, but she appreciated it after they became friends.

“Years later, I just shook her hand, and we’re friends now, and I just said, ‘You know what, thank you for that because I’m not so sure I would have become the champion if you were nice to me back then,'” Michelle said. [H/T Wrestling, Inc.]

Michelle defeated bitter enemy-turned-friend at Vengeance 2007 for her only WWE Women’s Championship. She also won the 24/7 Championship in 2019 during the Raw reunion episode.
