This feud led to a match at WrestleMania 22 in which both "Playboy" cover girls competed in a "Playboy" Pillow Fight. Torrie Wilson won the match. On the June 12 episode of "Raw", Candice was defeated by Torrie in the first ever ""Wet and Wild match"", a wrestling match involving water balloons and squirt guns, in which the winner of the match would be on the cover of the "WWE 2006 Summer Special" magazine. The feud continued sporadically in backstage segments where Candice was depicted as Vince McMahon's "sex slave". On the July 11 episode of "ECW", the villainous Candice appeared as Kelly Kelly's dance partner on that night's "Kelly's Exposé" segment, and attempted to seduce Kelly in a backstage segment before their performance. On the July 17 episode of "Raw", Candice was the Special Guest Referee during a tag team match of Stratus and Wilson against Victoria and Mickie James. James entered the match without being tagged in, so Candice threw her out of the ring. Afterwards, Victoria tried to clothesline Candice, but she ducked out of the way, allowing Stratus to perform a Stratusfaction for the victory. As a result of her participation in the match, Candice became a fan favorite. On the "Raw" following Unforgiven, Candice won a match against Lita. The next week, in her second match against Lita, Candice was pinned after she was speared by guest referee Edge, in the first round of the WWE Women's Championship tournament. On the November 27 episode of "Raw", during the Diva battle royal, Candice suffered a legitimate broken nose when Victoria kicked her in the face. She had surgery on November 30 to repair her deviated septum. Candice returned at New Year's Revolution on January 7, when she went to the ring with Maria to fight off Melina as she tried to interfere in the Women's Championship match between then-champion Mickie James and Victoria. Candice made her in-ring return on January 22 when she and Mickie James defeated Victoria and Melina in a tag team match with Candice scoring the pinfall. Candice then resumed her feud with Melina, who claimed in her blogs that no "Playboy" cover model was capable of defeating her in the ring. Candice took offense to this, which led to a Bra and Panties match between the two, which she lost.
