10 Wrestlers Who Stole Their Names From Porn Stars

2. Candice Michelle

WWE.comThe amazing thing about this particular porn-star ring name is that is, in fact, the former WWE Diva in question€™s ACTUAL name. How much crack were her parents actually on? Candice Michelle Beckman-Ehrlich is, in reality, a former WWE Women€™s Champion, who worked as a model and (mostly clothed) actress before becoming a professional wrestler. Still, that collision of two first names, one of which appears to be used solely by strippers, Playboy bunnies and dubious €˜ladies of the night€™, appears tailor-made for the credits of an in-house production commissioned by the Spice channel. Just imagine telling your friends that you€™ve got a magazine featuring Angelina Love and Candice Michelle. ...Then try and convince them that you didn€™t retrieve it from a hedgerow near your local high school. They€™ll never believe you.
