TMZ reported some sober news a few hours before tonight's slate of Sweet 16 games. The legendary Ric Flair's son, Reid Flair, was found dead in Charlotte, NC. The 25-year-old was an independent wrestler who's had a few matches in Japan in recent times and made some WCWappearances as a kid. The cause of death has yet to be determined.
The news comes only a few weeks after the passing of WWE great Paul Bearer. Condolences to Flair and all those affected.
