Alexis Ohanian has been quite fond of Ryan Reynolds’ work at Wrexham. The famous entrepreneur has been following the actor for his success with the Red Dragons and has hailed him significantly. He applauded the actor’s top-notch marketing abilities, referencing an old Michelob Ultra commercial.

For those who don’t know, it was a commercial where a man was watching Tiger Woods while holding a beer can instead of an iPhone like everyone else. This set him apart from the crowd and even got him a promotional deal from the brand. Hence, Ohanian retweeted about the incident and compared Michelob Ultra’s marketing skills to those of Reynolds.

He wrote, “Great example of FASTvertising. @VancityReynolds is the GOAT of this. Pay attention, brands. This is the way.” The 40-year-old entrepreneur has crowned the Deadpool star as the GOAT of marketing. This may be true, as the Canadian actor is quite an all-rounder.
