Pat Sajak is no stranger to a good pun. But he actually may have been out-punned by a contestant on 'Wheel on Fortune,' so much so that it created a very awkward moment that fans of the ABC show are loving.
The cringeworthy exchange happened on Wednesday's episode of the long-running game show when Sajak, 74, was interviewing Greg Wylie, a freelance project manager from California. Wylie's unique hobby as a competitive historical fencing enthusiast quickly became the topic of conversation between the two men.

— Wheel of Fortune (@WheelofFortune) December 3, 2020“It’s more Renaissance outfits and we do competitive fencing tournaments. You can do multiple players on the field,” Wylie explained. “So basically, I go out on the weekend and stab my friends. So, it’s very cathartic.”
Sajak then asked about Wylie’s family, which includes his wife, who he has been married to for 14 years, and his 12-year-old daughter, who is 'basically a teenager.'

“Well, just stay on guard,” Sajak joked after, adding, “Fencing humor there.”
After finishing the contestant's introduction, the host turned to the camera to cut to a commercial break, but not before Wylie was able to sneak in a fencing pun of his own.

“I got the point,” Wylie quipped.
