Flair Brothers Appearing At Lucha Libre USA Charlotte
Event
(Charlotte, NC) - David and Reid Flair, sons of the "Nature
Boy," Ric Flair, will be appearing at the Lucha Libre USA Masked
Warriors extravaganza in Charlotte, North Carolina on August 28th.
Reid will be managed by big brother, David, in a "Sons of Legends"
tag-team match at Charlotte's Bojangles Coliseum when he squares
off against Tinieblas Jr, son of the famous Mexican luchador,
Tinieblas.
"It's an honor to make my national television pro wrestling
debut on Lucha Libre USA Masked Warriors," stated Reid Flair.
"Lucha Libre is all about tradition and heritage. Pro wrestling has
meant the same in the Flair family my entire life."
"For weeks I've heard about how Tinieblas Jr. believes his
father is the most legendary and respected luchador/pro wrestler in
the history of our business. David and I take great exception to
that. I look forward to facing Tinieblas Jr. on the 28th and we'll
find out then, who the better second generation wrestler is. I can
tell you one thing; our hometown of Charlotte will definitely be on
our side; Oriental and Tinieblas Jr. better be ready for
that."
Lucha Libre USA will have additional stars on the Charlotte
card from its popular MTV2 show; performers like Marco Corleone,
Lizmark Jr., and Mascarita Dorada.
More wrestling royalty will be represented in Charlotte by Pam
Allyn, daughter of the late Gordon Solie, and her husband, Robert,
who will be on hand for a book signing. The Allyns along with
David and Reid Flair were in attendance when Gordon Solie and Ric
Flair were inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame, Class of 2008.
Lucha Libre USA is the new English version of the wrestling
