A story so true that it could make a grown man cry.
The Outrunners (Turbo Floyd & Truth Magnum) have been gaining a ton of popularity on AEW television as of late, as they've got to sqaure off with teams like FTR, Top Flight, and the Grizzled Young Veterans. On the September 11 edition of AEW Dynamite, the duo of Floyd and Mangum arguably got one of the biggest pops of the night when they made their entrance into the Casino Tag Team Gauntlet match.
On the latest edition of the AEW Unrestricted podcast, Turbo Floyd was asked to share the story of how he first met Truth Magnum. Be prepared, it's an emotional one.
“It was a really dark day. Just a young boy and I had to go to the hospital, it was a very serious condition. We didn’t know what was going on with me, couldn’t figure out, doctors had no idea what the heck was going on. I told the doctor, ‘Give it to me straight, what is it?’ It’s incurable. I said, ‘That doesn’t sound great, just give it to me straight talk.’ She said, ‘Turbo, I’m sorry to do this to you, but you’ve been diagnosed with OCD.’ I said, ‘What the h e double l is OCD?’ She said, ‘Turbo, you’re one cool dude.’ I said, ‘No way. Me?’ She said, ‘Yeah, you. But there’s still hope, there’s still a chance that you might be able to make it through because right next door is another guy who’s been diagnosed with OCD, imma bring him in right now.’ There he was. She said, ‘Here he is, Truth Magnum, both of you have OCD.’ She said, ‘Oh my god, I’ve discovered it, you both got it, 2CD, two cool dudes.’”
