As seen in the post-show tweet below, WWE referee Aja Smith revealed that she and Ruff are dating, and commented on calling his match.

"If you would have told me a year ago I'd be a referee, let alone referee my boyfriend's match on TV, I woulda neverrrr believed it! Life is so cool. @LeonRuffsxe you're always a winner to me [purple heart emoji]," Aja tweeted.

Ruff wrote back, "Everything seems possible with you by my side [love emojis]"

Ruff has been used on RAW and NXT several times during the recent series of COVID-19 tapings. Smith was signed earlier this year and touted as WWE's first-ever full-time African American female referee. You can see their full tweets below:
