In 2020, this sarcastic Canadian superhero and a trash-TV-lawyer friend bought a struggling fifth-tier football club — then got caught crying in the stands like a local when the team finally won promotion.
The full story
Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney bought Wrexham AFC in 2021 for about £2 million and documented it in Welcome to Wrexham; the club's 2023 promotion — with Reynolds visibly emotional in the stands — became one of sport's most wholesome storylines.
The clues we handed out
— The club is the third-oldest professional football club on Earth.

— His long-running 'feud' with a certain Australian Wolverine is entirely fake, and both refuse to end it.
— He's the Merc with a Mouth.
— Initials: R.R.
