In March, Melina was placed in an angle where she became jealous of "SmackDown!" Diva Ashley Massaro, who was receiving attention because of her appearance in "Playboy". The angle had Melina claim in her blogs that no "Playboy" cover models were capable of fighting her. This resulted in scheduled matches against former "Playboy" cover girls Torrie Wilson and Candice Michelle, with both women losing to Melina. The storyline came to an end at WrestleMania 23, where Melina pinned Ashley in a Lumberjill match to retain her Women's Championship. After WrestleMania, Melina organized a photo op with the Women's Championship belt in the ring, but was interrupted by Mickie James, resulting in another storyline feud between the two Divas. On April 24, at a house show in Paris, France, Melina lost the Women's Championship in a Triple Threat match to James when James pinned Victoria, but on the orders of Jonathan Coachman, she was entitled to a rematch on the same night, where she pinned James by putting her hands on the ropes to regain the title and become a two-time WWE Women's Champion.
