What happened to Ric Flairs son?

Richard Reid Fliehr was a professional wrestler in the United States. He was the younger brother of wrestler Charlotte Flair, the younger half-brother of wrestler David Flair, and the younger son of retired professional wrestler Ric Flair.

Richard Reid Fliehr, better known by his ring name Reid Flair, began wrestling at a young age, following in his father’s footsteps. On June 12, 2000, he defeated Eric Bischoff in WCW (which was later bought out by the WWE). He also teamed up with his father in a tag team bout against David Flair and Vince Russo.

Reid competed in independent leagues such as Big Time and Northeast Wrestling, as well as All Japan Pro Wrestling.

Reid was discovered in bed at a Residence Inn in Charlotte, North Carolina, on March 29, 2013. He was only 25 years old when he died. His postmortem report would reveal residues of alprazolam and clonazepam in his system a few weeks later, on June 14. According to reports, these two tranquillizers contributed to his death.
