Wrexham can 'dictate' their own future as Rob McElhenney & Ryan Reynolds told '£100m ecosystem' awaits Welsh side following historic promotion to the Championship

The Red Dragons achieved an incredible third consecutive promotion on Saturday when they beat Charlton, ensuring they will finish second in League One and move up to the second tier of English football next season.

Hollywood co-owners Rob McElhenney and Ryan Reynolds will see a massive jump in their revenue as a result of the jump up the divisions, financial expert Dr Rob Wilson his highlighted, with a whole new universe of financial streams available for Wrexham.

"Significant. Transformative. Fantasy," he told OLBG when asked of the financial impact the achievement will have. "Championship status will place Wrexham in a £100m+ broadcast ecosystem, elevate match day and sponsorship revenues, and further globalise their brand, particularly in North America, where the underdog-to-elite storyline resonates powerfully. We should also remember that English football, while having a base in the US, is still finding its feet, and this will further drive engagement.

"It also enables Wrexham to dictate, to some extent, their own future. While they will rightly still leverage their owners Hollywood status, it does give the club more pedigree to earn its own revenues."

Wrexham have skyrocketed to worldwide fame thanks to the presence of their film star owners. Their award-winning documentary series Welcome to Wrexham is still running on Disney+ and they have attracted sponsorships from the likes of TikTok and HP in recent years. It seems many more opportunities await the club in the coming months.
