Vince's Devils (originally known as "Ladies in Pink") was a heel professional wrestling stable in World Wrestling Entertainment on its Raw brand. It consisted of divas Candice Michelle, Victoria and Torrie Wilson. [cite web|url=http://slam.canoe.ca/Slam/Wrestling/2006/01/15/1395127.html|title=Sting down with TNA for ring return|author=Tim Baines|publisher=Ottawa Sun|accessdate=2008-03-15|date=January 15, 2006] The trio became known for their "pseudo-lesbian" tendencies, such as holding hands, getting in beds together, and kissing each other on the lips despite the fact that all three women are straight.

History

Debut

The stable began forming on August 22, 2005, when former "SmackDown!" Divas Torrie Wilson and Candice Michelle were traded to "RAW" for former "RAW" divas Stacy Keibler and Christy Hemme. That night both wrestlers called Diva Search 2005 winner, Ashley Massaro, to congratulate her, but they both began taunting her and eventually attacked her, turning heel in the process. The next week Torrie and Candice recruited Victoria to help them as an enforcer, and the three continually harassed Ashley week after week. They also humiliated her in singles matches by taunting and embarrassing her.

Feuds

When Trish Stratus made her return from a legitimate injury on September 12, she turned face once again by joining forces with Ashley.

Wrestling|accessdate=2008-03-15|date=September 19, 2005] At "WWE Homecoming", they lost again in a Bra and Panties Handicap match.

On October 31, Torrie had personal issues to take care of at home, leaving Victoria and Candice as a duo for the time being. On November 28, Torrie returned to the group to participate in a six-woman tag team match. Chloe (Torrie's dog) became an official member of the group on the December 26 episode of "RAW", as she made her presence felt in Victoria's match and became the first dog to have her own WWE.com profile. Victoria was facing male wrestler Carlito in a Beat the Clock match, in which the ladies used various heel tactics, but Victoria was easily defeated.

In November at Taboo Tuesday, Candice Michelle was eliminated from the Fulfill Your Fantasy Battle Royal for the WWE Women's Championship by former rival Ashley Massaro.

On the January 2 edition of "RAW", the Ladies in Pink turned their attention to backstage announcer Maria Kanellis, blaming her for Victoria's loss to Carlito, when Victoria announced to Maria that they had a match scheduled and proceeded to attack her before the bell. Despite dominating the match, which included interference from Torrie and Chloe (debuting Chloe's "finishing move", the '"Chloe Tush Push", which involved Wilson rubbing the dog's butt in her opponent's face), Victoria was pinned after she missed a splash into the turnbuckle and Maria rolled her up. Furious, the faction attacked Maria until Ashley ran in to make the save. Ashley got physical, but Torrie and Candice were able to stop her with a double DDT. The conflict between the Divas caused the Chairman, Vince McMahon, to make a Bra and Panties Gauntlet match at New Year's Revolution, which Ashley won when she eliminated Victoria by removing her shorts.

Wrestling|date=January 9, 2006|author=Chris Sokol]

On the January 9 edition of "RAW", during WWE Unlimited, Candice, Victoria and Torrie officially referred to themselves as "Vince's Devils". January 23 saw Vince's Devils back in the ring when Victoria and Candice, accompanied by Torrie and Chloe, took on Trish and Ashley in a tag match. During the match they debuted a new tandem move, with Candice doing a cartwheel and being caught by Victoria and subsequently splashed onto their opponent (in this case Ashley).

Disbandment

After Torrie lost to Ashley on the February 13 edition of "RAW", Candice revealed she would be gracing the cover April edition of "Playboy" magazine. She said it would be the hottest edition. Torrie did not seem too pleased, as she graced the cover of "Playboy" herself, twice. The following week, Candice Michelle earned her first singles championship opportunity, but was not successful in her attempt.cite web|url=http://www.wwe.com/shows/raw/archive/02272006/|title=RAW results - February 27, 2006|accessdate=2007-07-02|publisher=WWE.com] After the match, Candice slapped Wilson, blaming her for the loss. As a result, Wilson was the victim of an attack a week later by Candice and Victoria at Candice's "Playboy" cover unveiling.

On March 13, during Victoria's Women's Championship match, Torrie Wilson appeared to take out her former ally and cost her the victory. Later in the broadcast, it appeared that Candice and Victoria may have gotten their revenge as Trish Stratus found an unconscious Torrie laid out in the Divas' Locker room. [Ian Hamilton. "Wrestling's Sinking Ship: What Happens to an Industry Without Competition" (p.222)] At WrestleMania 22, Torrie gained her revenge by beating Candice in a Playboy Pillow Fight match. [Ian Hamilton. "Wrestling's Sinking Ship: What Happens to an Industry Without Competition" (p.226)] [cite web|url=http://slam.canoe.ca/Slam/Wrestling/PPVReports/2006/04/03/1517785.html|title=WrestleMania delivers big time on PPV|author=Dale Plummer and Nick Tylwalk|publisher=SLAM! Wrestling|accessdate=2008-03-15|date=April 3, 2006]

The feud between Candice and Wilson continued for some time. On the June 12 2006 edition of "RAW", Wilson defeated Candice in the first ever "Wet & Wild match"," a wrestling match involving water balloons and squirt guns, in which the winner of the match would be on the cover of the "WWE 2006 Summer Special" magazine.

A few months after Torrie Wilson left the group, Candice Michelle turned on Victoria, aligning herself back with Torrie. Candice took on a face role of the Women's Division. Subsequently, Candice occasionally appeared with Wilson backstage in segments where the two seem to be very "involved" with each other.
