Leon Ruff

[8.0] "It's baffling that this guy hasn't been able to secure a firm spot in NXT--or any major wrestling promotion, for that matter--given that he has the potential to be the modern-day Spike Dudley.In particular, the "Sell" segment from that one *Black Mass* performance is a masterpiece that deserves to be talked about for generations to come."

"Admittedly, I've only watched one match involving Leon Ruff, but I thoroughly enjoyed it. It was Leon Ruff vs Shane Mercer and I dare say that Leon Ruff's chemistry with Mercer was quite good. He took Mercer's hits well and used his size and speed to his advantage to get some good spots in on the big guy. High-flying suits him well."

[4.0] "I mean... I don't know what to say. Leon Ruffin has jobber vibes written all over him, yet major companies like WWE and AEW (to an extent) want to push him to the moon. That NXT North American Title story was mid at best, he was never ready to be put in that position. His size is criticized, yet it doesn't really matter. Darby Allin is just as big and does so well, yet people don't hate on him nearly as much. Leon needs to improve drastically if he is to truly succeed, otherwise, we may have problems."

[5.0] "He works the pretty standard indy style that we've come to see over the past 15-20 years. Ruff is a solid athlete, but he's undersized and not believable enough as a babyface."

[5.0] "I think he has a lot of potential tbh. I like him in the ring and he? s a great seller but, too small, too unbelievable to go over anyone on the roster."

[3.0] "Decent guy, he's fairly young so it'll be interesting to see how he develops from here, perhaps he could gain some muscle and develop character off that?"

[2.0] "I have been very unimpressed with everything I have seen of Ruff since he's been on NXT. So many people on every wrestling show these days can do good, agile moves in the ring; so that alone doesn't get you anywhere. Between his look, moveset, & name; I can't help but to see a discount version of Lio Rush. His story with the North American Title was one of the worst stories in NXT in years. He was being pushed as a babyface & all I was doing was rooting for him to fail & go away. Maybe he can go through some sort of repackage to make me care about him. But for now, he's one of the few guys on NXT who immediately makes me want to change the channel."

[5.0] "By God he is bad. Zero charisma, zero personality has been shown by this young man throughout his push in NXT. I don't know what WWE was hoping to do with Leon other than multiplying Johnnys reigns. He is just standard bland not so good hugh flyer and that's it."

[9.0] "Leon has the charisma, and in ring skill. the only reason that i will rate him only 9 is because we havent seen any promos from him so idk about mic skill, his segment this week on nxt with damien priest and johnny gargano made me like him way more"

[6.0] "Leon Ruff is a lot of fun to watch. He's still too much of All-Flash, no substance high flyer, and there are a lot of those out there. I'm waiting for him to show more. For now, his fellow members of the Skulk Liam Gray and Adrian Alanis interest me more."

[7.0] "Leon has a good look, brings a good energy to the ring and has a pretty athletic style. He has been doing great for himself if you take in mind that he is only 23 and has been an active wrestler for two years. I can see him becoming a mainstay in evolve but I hope that he doesnt join wwe, atleast not quite yet."
