Candice Michelle returned to WWE after 12 years of absence to capture the 24/7 championship

After Kelly Kelly successfully captured the WWE 24/7 Championship, she went to celebrate with Candice Michelle. The former Women's Champion had been away from WWE TV for nearly a decade, but she finally returned for the "RAW Reunion" episode.

Naomi and former Women's Champion Melina stood by as Michelle congratulated Kelly. The newly crowned 24/7 Champion asked Melina how she was doing. Melina, who had been absent for a few years, told her that she had taken the past few years to get her license. She then revealed a referee shirt under her jacket.

Taken by surprise, Kelly suffered a knee to the stomach from Michelle. A Double Axe Handle to the back earned Michelle a three count. Melina counted the pin to officially crown Michelle as the new champion.

Candice's victory made her a champion in WWE for the first time in 12 years. Her last title run during her active career ended when she lost the Women's Championship to Beth Phoenix in 2007.
