This former WWE Champion will soon return to wrestling in a different promotion.

Former WWE Diva, Candice Michelle, is famous for her work in the Ruthless Aggression Era of WWE.

She was one of the entrants in the Raw Divas Search in 2004, but didn’t win, and the company hired her and gave her the gimmick of a makeup.

She later got her main roster debut on SmackDown in 2005, where she became involved in a feud with Torrie Wilson and Melina. During her WWE tenure, she held the Women’s Championship once and the WWE 24/7 title once.

Although she was released from the Stamford-based promotion in 2009, her retirement match came in the indies in 2017.

Now Michelle has officially signed for Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA) in a new role.

Carlos stated that Candice will be working behind the scenes. Candice thanked everyone, including Dreamer, who had called her to see if she would be interested in the role.

She spoke about how she’s been loyal to Dreamer for 20 years and to the wrestling business, going on to say that coming back to it is like a “dream come true.”

Candice was in attendance for TNA’s AMC Debut in Jan and their No Surrender event in Feb.
