<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The tale of <strong>Wrexham AFC under the leadership of <a href="https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/ryan-reynolds/">Ryan Reynolds</a> and Rob McElhenney</strong> is a narrative that could rival the most gripping of Hollywood blockbusters. Especially since their ownership journey with the historic Welsh club has been nothing short of cinematic. Since assuming control of the club in 2020, the duo has presented an unshakable unified front, only turning on each other for the sake of banter sometimes. As seen in <strong><em>Welcome to Wrexham</em>, their camaraderie screams ‘BFFs’</strong>. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">It was not always so as the pair’s friendship had a surprising beginning. </span></p>
<h2><strong>Rob McElhenney reveals his feelings for his Wrexham AFC Co-owner</strong></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">A post that E! News shared on its Instagram page earlier today featured a <strong>comment that McElhenney made regarding his relationship with Reynolds.</strong> In it, the <em>It&#8217;s Always Sunny in Philadelphia</em> actor revealed that he was a stranger to the <em>Deadpool</em> actor before their Wrexham escapade. Well, <strong>McElhenney considers him one of his “<em>closest friends</em>” now</strong>! In the three years that he spent with the <em>Free Guy</em> star, McElhenney has grown quite fond of his friend. </span></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Since both men share an origin story that has its roots in Hollywood, this revelation is also quite shocking. Despite being unacquainted initially, <a href="https://www.netflixjunkie.com/hollywood-news-best-years-of-my-life-ryan-reynolds-and-rob-mcelhenney-the-wexham-co-owners-celebrate-two-years-since-their-amazing-hollywood-takeover/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">he once claimed to have enjoyed some of the best years of his life with Reynolds.</a> Well, this is a significant sign for Wrexham supporters. With two leaders who are so in sync with each other, the club is bound to enjoy some smooth management, too. </span></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Not to forget their amusing antics that keep their team and audiences entertained.</span></p>
<h2><strong>Ryan Reynolds and McElhenney&#8217;s shared love for pranks</strong></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Besides their mutual investment in Wrexham AFC, <strong>Reynolds and McElhenney are joined by their insatiable appetite for pulling practical jokes</strong> on each other. When it comes to pranks, neither of them holds back. One of the long-running jokes between them began with the <em>Spirited</em> actor savagely making fun of McElhenney’s height. <a href="https://www.netflixjunkie.com/netflix-news-like-a-flu-but-in-your-pants-ryan-reynolds-and-kaitlin-olson-hilariously-joke-about-rob-mcelhenney-in-a-spot/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Reynolds even teamed up with the latter’s partner to poke fun at him</a> once. </span></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Earlier this year, the father of four also gave McElhenney a splendid birthday present that doubled as a prank. It seems like when it comes to mischief, both Wrexham owners have found their match in each other. Considering the aforementioned heartwarming statement the <em>Fargo</em> actor made, it seems like <strong>these light-hearted moments have only brought the two closer</strong>. Their adorable bromance will probably continue to entertain fans for years.</span></p>
