I only liked SvR Witch Candice.
In real life though, couldn't stand her. She was more charismatic than the average diva, but that only goes so far.

I thought she was alright, she falls into that category for me of "I didn't know she wasn't popular". But yeah, that injury screwed her career up proper and she was just "there" after she came back from it. Also, her techno theme was AWFUL.

The sad thing about her injury was that she was actually winning the match, one fall to none.

I find it cosmic that she and Mr. Kennedy were both released around the same time in 2009, when they had both been seen as a future big stars in their respective divisions only to have injuries derail their momentum at seemingly every turn.

I thought she was terrible, got slightly better, then got terrible again. The poster girl for the "hard work and good work are the same thing" attitude some people have towards the Divas that annoys me.

Fall as in she fell from the top turnbuckle. Got it. Though it wasn;t that good, it's just not that fun when someone explains it.

I wasn't watching during her run. when I came back, she was still on the shelf, and came back with a different face and she was apparently "fat" according to the dirt sheets.

I thought she was really hot, decent enough in ring, compared to the crop.

Another one's showcasing their encyclopedia of knowledge of meaningless mid-card matches from five years ago. All of it comedic gold.

She is one of my favourite Divas. Because she actually made me care. Seconded. One of my favourite divas of all time. I can't remember when it happened but at one point she went from just another diva to THE diva for me. She was just as terrible as all the other eye candy divas when she started, but in 2007 she noticeably got a lot better with each match. She went from looking like eye candy trying to wrestle, to looking like an actual wrestler. I loved her PPV matches with Beth and Melina (who she also had a great Heat match with). It's a shame her injury overshadows her 2/3 falls match with Beth because up until that point it was a really, really good match. One of my favourite divas matches from the past decade. When she came back she was still good (I remember seeing footage of a 10 minute house show match she had with Beth which was great) but didn't get the chance to show it off anymore. I wish she had got a chance on Smackdown when she was drafted. Now she's a milf.

like many said: she was bad, got better, improved, injured, bad.

She cared about wrestling, worked hard to get better but was held back by injuries. She was also one of many divas pushed at the expense of the more talented and over Mickie James.
Not much else to say really--oh and her voice was annoying.

Calling that match meaningless is a big stretch, considering it marked the beginning of the end of Candice's career.

Hmm I think the comment on confusing "good work with hard work" when it comes to divas is spot on.
Candice DID improve. That 2/3 falls match when she was injured was one of the few times I can ever remember the crowd caring or supporting her. Most of her PPV matches they didn't give a damn or they were cheering for her opponent.
I also remember how much people on forums hated her at the time. Mickie James was far more skilled and popular, and most fans found her to be very attractive, so it was infuriating when they saw her getting pushed aside on Heat or jobbing on house shows so Candice could have the spotlight.
This actually makes me think there's more to James' backwards treatment in WWE than we realize. Maybe she was a bit of a problem to work with backstage and that's why they always pushed other women over her.

HOT! With capital H, O, and T. However, her voice kills some of her hotness whenever she talks. Yeah, she was good to look at. But listening to her talk is like listening to a child talk about puppies (the baby dogs, not the shitty Jerry Lawler innuendo for boobs).
