It is a significant achievement for the club after its absence from Football League for 15 years. Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney are excited to see the club getting a promotion to the fourth division in their second full season as owners.

Ryan Reynolds’ DNA has changed

Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney gave an interview to the Welsh public broadcast S4C to discuss Wrexham and its promotion season. Reynolds looked too excited during the interview and shared his excitement about Wrexham getting a promotion. Reynolds said, “I can’t believe that I’m in a place in my life where any sports team, let alone one I happen to somehow be a co-chairman of, has affected me this deeply.”

The Deadpool star added, “I feel like there was a DNA change when we lived through that Boreham Wood moment. I don’t know that I’ll ever be quite the same again.” Reynolds doesn’t want to come down off cloud nine. He said, “I live in a sort of constant slightly perpetual state of elation. I don’t want to come back down from this cloud. Like I genuinely just don’t want to come down.”

Wrexham will look to take the momentum into the League Two. Reynolds and McElhenney are hoping for another inspiring season. As part of building momentum for next season, the club owners have lined up some incredible games for the preseason.
