Interview with Ventura, live event correction, AJ Lee update, Mania party a success, TNA/Wrestle-1 results, country band to Raw, Lawler appearance and Questions on Hero-TNA, the post-Hogan era, Kim's open challenge and Hero's WWE exit

Jesse Ventura talked about wrestling amid his usual political spiel. I only cover his stuff when it's wrestling-related and don't endorse his political views.

The match AJ Lee collapsed in was a tag match where she teamed with Tamina against the Bella Twins. The match basically continued with the other three wrestlers while AJ was tended to. Dehydration's no joke.

AJ's saying she's ok after fainting at that event. I hope she's right.

It's estimated that 5,000 fans attended the WrestleMania Kick-Off party in New Orleans featuring Mark Henry, Sheamus, Rey Mysterio, Kaitlyn, Alicia Fox, Booker T., Mick Foley and Jimmy Hart. A number of injured performers on that list...

Everything else from yesterday is after the break.

AJ Styles was successful in defending his version of the TNA World Championship at Wrestle-1. The show also featured Rob Terry and Jay Bradley winning in tag action. Cool for TNA to work with other companies like that.

Country band Florida Georgia Line will be at Raw in Nashville, TN on Monday. The show will have a country theme. I'm worried about that.

Jerry Lawler was at Memphis' Comic-Con this weekend. He's a big comics fan.

For my take on yesterday's PWInsider.com questions:
1. If they're smart, they'll try to pick him up. Nothing would say "we're turning over a new leaf" like signing Hero and making the most of that acquisition.

2. How great is it to read "With Hogan no longer with TNA"? Just think of the good TNA can put that money to now. And maybe they'll drop Sting's hefty contract soon as well?

3. I like it. It builds her up as a champion, gets some spotlight on the talents involved (as well as the division itself) and can lead to a big moment when she loses.

4. Definitely. Though it is pretty entertaining to read/hear some of the post-departure comments (AW, Steiner).

Nothing to add to 5.

More wrestling tomorrow.
