“My Wife Wants to Kill You” – Ryan Reynolds Makes Shocking Blake Lively Admission to Fellow Co-owner Rob McElhenney Over $2.4 Million Investment

Hollywood star Ryan Reynolds ventured into a new field in 2020 with Rob McElhenney. He bought the world’s third-oldest soccer team, Wrexham FC. While many congratulated his new venture, as per him, the response of his wife and actress Blake Lively was something else. As the Deadpool actor is popularly known for his humor sense and sarcasm, he shared how Blake reacted to the decision to buy a soccer club. 

Reynold and McElhenney made this decision without even meeting each other. There were direct messages shared between the two on social media to go for it. It started first with Reynolds appreciating the work of the FX star. As a result, the duo became friends and bought a soccer club in the fifth division of the English soccer pyramid. However, when asked by Rob about his thoughts on the venture, Reynolds gave a hilarious reply involving Blake Lively. 

Ryan Reynolds on how his wife reacted to buying Wrexham FC

Reynolds and the ‘It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia’ star started a venture named RR McReynolds Company LLC to buy the third-oldest soccer club in history. They bought the Welsh club Wrexham Association Football Club in 2021 for $2.4 million as their bid received tremendous backing from the supporters.

In the past October, the duo was chilling out, and Rob McElhenney asked Ryan Reynolds about the investment they made. McElhenney was curious to know whether Reynolds was angry at the investments.

“I’ve been waiting for the right… peaceful moment to ask you. Do you harbor any anger and or resentment for asking you to do this(buying the club)?,” Rob asked.

The Deadpool actor was quick to reply, “My wife wants to kill you, Rob.” 

Reynolds and McElhenney previously shared their thoughts about how their wives reacted to the decision of buying a soccer club when promoting the ‘Welcome To Wrexham’ documentary. Blake Lively’s reaction was not so great when Reynolds broke the news. The same was the case with McElhenney’s wife when she questioned her husband’s ego for sharing the owner’s space with Reynolds.

Reynolds and McElhenney are also in the news over their bid to buy a second sports team, the Ottawa Senators of NHL. Many also questioned the duo on selecting a low-tier club as their first venture into soccer.

Their decision to buy a Welsh club came from an idea of McElhenney, who wanted to buy a less-known club in the low tier. The idea was to build a club from scratch and to make it a force to reckon with in soccer. However, the decision to go for Wrexham specifically was random and based on their feelings.
