June 17, 2013

The Charlotte Observer has posted a new article covering Reid Flair's autopsy report and the cause of death being revealed as a drug overdose. In the article, Reid's mother Beth and his father, WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair had the following to say concerning the result of the report:

"I knew his fears and I knew how to help him," Beth said. "All he wanted to do was stay busy, train and keep his mind off the old triggers, then go back to Japan. He was doing really well there. He was happy."

Ric Flair also spoke with the newspaper, saying, "I loved him… He should have been on top of the world, but he was fighting a battle he couldn't win. I hope people remember his laugh, his spirit and his love of life."
