19. Torrie Wilson Vs Candice Michelle (WrestleMania 22)

Astonishingly the second pillow fight on this list of WrestleMania matches, the scuffle between Torrie Wilson and Candice Michelle was tied into a brief annual relationship between the company and Playboy Magazine.

Featuring a Diva as a cover star as an annual tradition for several years around WrestleMania season, the woman chosen for the centrefold treatment would end up on the main card to co-promote the issue and the pay-per-view itself.

As 2006's chosen model, Candice Michelle would take on former centrefold Torrie Wilson in another laughable affair in between main events at WrestleMania 22.

As half the crowd took toilet breaks, Torrie and Candice gamely tried to make it look competitive, with the two battling over around a bed planted in the middle of the ring.

Things rapidly turned south when Wilson brought her pet dog into the ring to rub its backside on Candice's face, before both were stripped to their underwear for some lousy highspots leading to Torrie scoring with a roll-up for the win.
