It made an incredible difference when, in November 2020, Rob McElhenney and Deadpool actor Ryan Reynolds brought the Welsh club Wrexham AFC. The move shocked everyone, including the Wrexham staff. The club officer was ready that the new owners would lose money investing in Wrexham.

However, that doubt died out after he learned about the owners. Reynolds and McElhanney acquiring the club have been a blessing for the club and the town. Looking at how things turned out in a couple of years, no other owner would have brought so much value.

Wrexham has been performing like never. They just shocked the world with their historic run in the FA Cup. The club is also eying automatic promotion this season as they continue to put National League on terror. However, in the middle of the promotion-worthy run, Wrexham owners didn’t forget the community.

Wrexham staff talked about Ryan Reynolds’ efforts

Wrexham staff member Kerry Evans was limited to a wheelchair because of a brain bleed. In a recent talk with the Athletic, she talked about how she felt during that time. She opened up about how she almost gave up and how meeting Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney gave her life a new direction.

She said, “I was completely paralysed down the right side of my body. I met Rob and Ryan on their first visit in October 2021. They asked me then if I’d go on to staff as a full-time member. We do 12 away fixtures per season. I did have sponsors on board later and now we are funded by the club for the away travel.”
