Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney are the newest definitions of friendship. The pair instantly clicked during their first chit-chat on Instagram, which soon led to the iconic bond they share now. Their endearing bromance and Wrexham AFC ownership have become the focus of the world in the past years. The idea that brought these two together has transformed the fortunes of the football club and community of Wales.

Now the Deadpool star is once again aiming to purchase another sports team but clearly does not have a Hollywood friend to support him. Instead, the Canadian superstar will have to compete with two legendary artists from the music industry.

The star power is boosting the hype of the Ottawa Senators with every passing day. Ryan Reynolds showed his constant effort to win the bidder list, making appearances at games throughout this season. This built-up surrounding the 46-year-old star brought new celebrity contenders like Neko Sparks. And now the American rapper Snoop Dogg has announced that he is joining the Los Angeles-based entrepreneur for the bid.

“This ain’t no joke or no gimmick. Or an image or likeness play. This is a real ownership play. And Snoop will put his foot in the town,” Dogg told The Athletic. During his interview, he also revealed that while talking about the team, they decided to join hands and try to get this legendary under their roots.

According to Ottawa Sun, the Grammy winner that grew up in Ottawa soil has great internal connections around the city. He knows the market well and, considering his popularity as one of the greatest musicians, can be profitable to the team. “He has the most views, the most streams and he’s a hockey guy,” remarked the insiders.

Not to mention, the ‘Die for You’ singer himself wants to be a part of the Ottawa Senators and do something good for his city. As of now, it is unclear with whom he will join forces to make his dream come true, but if he joins Ryan Reynolds, there would be nothing that could stop them from winning.
