Details on Becky collection, Raw special edition in France, Interviews with Rey/Charlotte/Xavier Woods, Flair appears in hip hop video, WWE exec promoted, PWT store signings booked, Impact sees big audience boost, Edwards incident fallout, and Questions on Mania in smaller venues, Truth's status, Corgan's NWA commitments, and WWE without Vince now and then

Becky Lynch's WWE Network collection was detailed. I have a feeling she'll have more collections as her career progresses.

Raw will air a one-hour version in France on free TV, as well as the channel's app. Hopefully that gets more interest in the product there.

Rey Mysterio is on Edge and Christian's latest podcast.

Ric Flair appeared in a hip hop video for a song about him. It's as amazing as you'd expect.

Charlotte Flair was interviewed in Iowa, while Xavier Woods was on the Kinda Funny Morning Show.

WWE has a new chief marketing and communications officer, promoting him from being executive vice president of that department. He's reporting to Michelle Wilson.

Alberto El Patron is negotiating a new deal with Impact Wrestling, as his current contract expires in April. They'll really have to change their future direction if he doesn't stay; he's definitely one of their top acts. Whether WWE would have him back is unknown, but there's certainly interest on his side at mending fences there.

Ricky Steamboat (April 14) and Vickie Guerrero (April 21) will do signings at Pro Wrestling Tees' store.

Impact Wrestling drew 365,000 viewers Thursday night, a jump of more than 100,000 viewers from the previous week. The show hadn't done that well since July 2017. I don't know if it was seeing Eddie Edwards get clobbered or what, but that's a very pleasant surprise for the company. We'll see whether some of that additional audience will stick around going forward.

- Impact released alternate camera footage of the Edwards incident, and TMZ covered it. That spot couldn't have gone much worse.

For my take on yesterday's PWInsider.com questions:
1. Presumably it could happen at some point if WWE fails to create a brand and stars people will flock to. I think we're some time away from that being a possibility, though. As for consciously running a smaller venue like MSG, that would be throwing away a LOT of money for their biggest week of the year. It's not a smart decision.

2. He's still under contract and presumably intends to return once he recovers.

3. I don't think so. As was said, he hasn't thrown an absurd amount of money into the project. It's pretty small scale so far.

4. Wilson, Barrios, Triple H, and Stephanie have been trained to inherit things for years now. Ideally there would still be a couple of years before the torch is passed, but I definitely don't think things would collapse. I think Wall Street will panic, but WWE is "Then. Now. Forever." for a reason. It's not going to go under without Vince. It's a big enough enterprise with so many people working in so many places that it can adapt.

5. This was years before the Attitude Era and the company going public, so I think they would have survived. The company wasn't nearly as complex as it is today. It would be interesting to see how things would have changed without Vince at the helm, though. His vision really steered the ship in a way that other wrestling minds wouldn't have.

More wrestling tomorrow.
