Ryan Reynolds expressed his overwhelming emotions on X (formerly Twitter), stating, "A few years ago, if you told me I would be crying tears of joy over a football match taking place in North Wales, you would be Rob McElhenney. Congrats to Wrexham and to my co-chairman in crime. Double up the town! This is the ride of our lives." This sentiment was echoed by McElhenney's succinct yet powerful message: "No words."

The second half of the game saw further goals from Ryan Barnett and Jack Marriott, capping off what was truly a memorable day for the Dragons. The victory not only signifies a step up in competition for Wrexham but also highlights the successful journey under the stewardship of its celebrity owners.

Their vision for the club has transcended beyond mere ownership, fostering a sense of unity and ambition that has been pivotal in achieving back-to-back promotions. As Wrexham prepares for life in League One, the impact of their Hollywood star owners continues to resonate both on and off the pitch, promising an exciting future for the club and its supporters.
