The Wrexham story is arguably one of the most entertaining takeovers Hollywood has witnessed in a while. Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney turned the tides for the Red Dragons and Welsh League alike. Since their takeover in 2021, the Hollywood duo has achieved a lot. However, despite all the accolades and fame, their focus remains constant. There is no denying the fact that Reynolds and McElhenney are very passionate about their club. And recently, Paul Mullin made an interesting revelation about the duo.

After living the highs and lows of the journey alongside the two, Mullin revealed how the Red Dragons mean much more to them than Hollywood.

Paul Mullin on how important Wrexham’s promotion was to Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney

With the 2022-23 season, Rob McElhenney and Ryan Reynolds silenced the trolls and removed all doubts fans had about their Wrexham takeover. While it has been some time since the club earned a promotion, the iconic moment remains afresh in everyone’s minds. Not long ago, Paul Mullin took a trip down memory lane as he recalled the owner’s reactions after achieving the decades-long dream.

The star striker revealed on Kammy & Ben’s Proper Football Podcast, “I think it probably did mean an awful lot to them–probably a lot more than making some of the movies or TV shows that they have done.” Having played for multiple clubs before Wrexham, Mullin revealed how the Hollywood duo are “unlike any owners he has ever witnessed.”

The talisman also addressed the passion and focus Reynolds and McElhenney have for Wrexham. He recalled the next day after the promotion where instead of celebrating; the duo was planning things for the next season. Previously, the star striker even revealed how the duo had been a great help to him during his injury. Mullin’s comeback to Wrexham is a recent happening, and the player has been having a decent season so far.

How has the Wrexham talisman performed in the Second Division?

Paul Mullin has always been the highlight of Wrexham matches. The star striker’s contribution to the Welsh side has been significant. Moreover, his injury posed a tough challenge for the Red Dragons early in the season. Now that Mullin made his comeback, he has been a key contributor to Wrexham’s impressive second-division journey. The talisman has netted four goals in over nine appearances for the club.

Mullin was also the only goalscorer in Wrexham’s previous draw against Bradford City. Despite an impressive performance, the star striker failed to lead his side to victory. However, the fixture raised a lot of eyebrows with its controversial decisions and foul play against the English forward. Following the latest draw, Wrexham will now visit former rivals Notts County on October 28.
