Wrexham star makes surprise appearance on radioReynolds hits back after his McElhenney digJackman reveals his admiration for the forwardWHAT HAPPENED?
The Hollywood actor appeared on alongside his Deadpool & Wolverine co-star Hugh Jackman when Mullin made a cameo on the phone. Before it was announced that it was Mullin on the line, he was asked for an unpopular opinion and he hailed Reynolds fellow Wrexham co-chairman Rob McElhenney as the club's best owner.

Reynolds immediately bit back at his team's star player, telling the injured star to get back to working on his recovery after an operation.
"Oh, I know that voice, Mullin," he said. "Why aren't you doing calisthenics right now, buddy? Maybe stretch that recently fixed back out a little bit. I don't know. Maybe make good on an investment in a promise that we made."
Wolverine actor Jackman chimed in, declaring himself a "big fan" of the forward, adding: "I'd love to get your autograph one day."
Reynolds attempted to sour the budding friendship between his star player and good friend, saying: "His favourite celebrity, actually, that came by is Will Ferrel, so yeah."
THE BIGGER PICTURE
Mullin was full of praise for both Reynolds and McElhenney when asked for his opinion on the pair. After Reynolds warned him to be "careful" with his words, Mullin said: "Both wonderful as owners. More than that, just as people. Get to see them as people more than owners now. As we've seen in the documentary [Welcome to Wrexham], what they've done for the community has been phenomenal. Our success is obviously down to them. Their success with the club is also down to us, which is brilliant and long may it continue."
