If she had not been injured by Beth Phoenix, would Candice have had a long career in WWE?

I think if the injury didn't happen she would be in the upper circle of great WWE divas, by the time she got injured she was really good in the ring and was still improving.

a lot of people probably don't know this but she had a "Booker T N-word" moment of her own at Wrestlemania Axxess just before Wrestlemania 24. she was there as a surprise with her arm in a sling. Hillbilly Jim was hosting a little hype program with Jimmy Hart and brought out Candice. Hillbilly puts the mic in front of her face and as she's hyping a crowd of many children randomly yells out something with a very loud and pronounced "F***in!" involved. She immediately realized what she did, put her hand over her mouth and hid her face.

I've seen her naked. That's my contribution to this thread.

I was a really big fan of hers through her run. She really improved in the ring and seemed to show a passion for wrestling like most divas didn't have

I'll always have a soft spot for Candice Michelle. She was the first diva search candidates to win the women's championship and she was always improving every week and showed she put in a lot of effort. She probably would of left around the same time since most divas retire early especially the ones who want to become mothers

I did not care for her at all at first (though I did appreciate her Playboy spreads). Eventually, she showed that she was dedicated to her new career and improved greatly. Unfortunately, most women with her body frame are not well suited for long careers in wrestling in general and it cost her greatly. Her injury from Beth would have sidelined anyone, but upon her return she was still a little to frail for her own long term health.
I appreciate her effort and now consider myself a fan, but I am glad that she retired.

I give her credit for really improving from a chick that couldn't really do anything to being fairly decent.
Plus, that faceplant is one of the most brutal botches I've ever seen.

She really worked hard to not be just another pretty face, She wanted to follow Trish's footsteps and such, I liked her.

Candice Michelle was the only female wrestler to win both the PWI Most Improved Award and Woman of the Year. It happened in 2007.

If she didn't get injured she'd probably last slightly longer but I still think she would have left eventually.
But that injury really messed with her since when she came back she was never the same.

I thought she was alright but they had no business trying to make her the center piece of the division. They were obnoxious with how much they demanded people cheer for her and appreciate her and ignore the other people who were better in the ring than she was.
That's not on her though, and I have nothing against her.

If someone told you in 2005 that Candice Michelle would be booked in a Two out of Three Falls Match for the Women's Championship two years later (after already having won the title), it would have been met with much scoffing.
I was not a fan of Candice as a wrestler to begin with (I preferred her as the valet for Victoria and Torrie during their stable). But by 2007 she became pretty good. It was definitely a necessity to get Candice prepared for a top spot in the division. Outside of the super over Mickie James, there were no other babyface Raw Divas (Maria was god awful) compared to the likes of Melina, Victoria and the returning Beth Phoenix on the heel side. The fans and WWE were behind her, she was being booked in Raw main events. I remember the Match of Champions, with John Cena and Candice vs. Umaga, Cade and Murdoch. Of course she didn't do anything in the match but still.

I remember when she put on some weight and got some flack for it.
Not me though, I thought that was the finest she ever looked!

She was going to be like Trish.
I liked how she seemed so adept in a short space of time. She went from annoying to likable too.

I agree that she had improved, but that's like Otunga. You can't get worse. There was only room to go up. TO say she would have been a top tier diva in the annals of history is a huge stretch I think. I'd say that she finished her contract and went on her way. WWE moved away from the porn stars not long after.
Also that injury seemed to effect her mentally. She had many obvious glitches in the ring I assumed were due to fear.
