Phoenix lost the Women's Championship to Melina at the 2009 Royal Rumble. Following on from this, she competed in the 25-woman "Miss WrestleMania" battle royal at WrestleMania XXV. The Glamazon managed to rack up the most eliminations with twelve but eventually lost. The loss of the match was at the hands of her Glamarella partner, who competed in drag, claiming to be his twin sister, Santina.

After that, the Phoenix had a feud with "Santina" and Santino, effectively ending their time as a couple. Following the rivalry, Phoenix had a brief break from WWE TV.
