Becky Lynch continues to expand her acting resume, securing a role in "Movers," a new comedy pilot for FX. The project comes from the minds of Robert Ben Garant and Cathy Shim, known for their work on the hit series Reno 911!.

The new workplace comedy is an improvised series that follows a group of dysfunctional movers. Lynch, who will be credited by her real name Rebecca Quin, joins a cast that includes Garant, Shim, Maz Jobrani, Darius Homayoun, Tanael “TJ” Joachim, and Manny Montana.

This news comes on the heels of our previous report about Lynch's role in the upcoming Happy Gilmore 2. "The Man" is no stranger to the screen, having built a solid list of acting credits over the past three years. She notably portrayed music icon Cyndi Lauper on NBC's Young Rock and made an appearance on the Showtime drama Billions. She also performed stunts for the History Channel series Vikings.

Fans can look forward to seeing more of Lynch on screen soon. In addition to a potential series pickup for Movers, she is set to appear in Happy Gilmore 2 on Netflix and has a role in the upcoming Star Trek: Starfleet Academy for Paramount+.

Despite her growing Hollywood career, Lynch remains a top star in WWE. She is the current WWE Women's Intercontinental Champion and is scheduled to defend her title at the upcoming Evolution premium live event.

10 Fastest Championship Matches in WWE History

A lightning fast championship match can be shocking, both for the right and the wrong reasons. Some of the quickest matches in WWE history have caused Superstars like Daniel Bryan to be catapulted to the top of the card, while others like Kofi Kingston had short moments of glory snatched away from them.

For this list, we're not counting Money in the Bank cash-ins like Dean Ambrose pinning Seth Rollins in nine seconds or Jack Swagger taking Chris Jericho's title in eight seconds. These are mostly traditional matches, minus one Money in the Bank precursor where Trish Stratus pulled the biggest heel move of her career.

Of course this is wrestling, so cheating is 100-percent legal for this list. If you happened to low blow your opponent just moments before the match began, only for the bell to ring thanks to some hapless referee -- that's a'okay with us!

Whether it be an iconic retirement match at Wrestlemania or a bizarre untelevised moment between a veteran and a rising star at Madison Square Garden, these are officially the 10 fastest championship matches in the history of WWE. Get out your stopwatches if you don't believe us!
