Becky Lynch will be hoping that game show fans forget her recent performance.
Lynch was a guest on Celebrity Jeopardy, hoping to win some money for the charity Conor’s Cure. Also playing the trivia game were Home Alone star Macaulay Culkin and actress and comedian Rachel Dratch.
Although Lynch has previously triumphed over tough rivals such as Ronda Rousey and Charlotte Flair, the game show proved to be her toughest opponent yet.
As pointed out on social media by a superfan of the show, The Man did not give one correct answer to the 60 clues that were asked in the first two rounds, a historical first for the promotion.

Lynch’s fortune took a positive turn in Triple Jeopardy, where she was finally able to answer two correct questions.
As the show was a charity edition, Lynch was allowed to compete in the final round despite finishing the preceding rounds with a score of -$500. Playing Final Jeopardy, Lynch guessed the final question correctly, finishing in third place with a score of $1000. She and Macaulay Culkin both took home $30,000 for their respective charities, while winner Rachel Dratch earned $33,601, beating Culkin’s score by just $1.
In recent news, Becky Lynch and Bianca Belair were awarded a Guinness World Record.
