Reynolds has been "riding Hugh Jackman's coattails since 2009."

Hugh Jackman and Ryan Reynolds have been in fake beef with each other for years now. It cannot be emphasized enough that this beef is completely made-up: it is the exact opposite of "The Story of Adidon." They've gone back-and-forth on the internet with mock-seriousness, with an underlying motive: to promote each other. Hugh Jackman has even pulled other actors, like John Krasinski, in to the drama. 

The most recent jab in their faux-fight was thrown by Jackman, who posted a video to Twitter lampooning the former National Lampoon star while, at the same time, promoting his upcoming movie, Once Upon A Deadpool: "Ryan Reynolds may seem like an honest, hardworking movie star, husband and father. But, don't let the facts get in the way of the truth: he's been riding Hugh Jackman's coattails since 2009."

This tweet was actually based on one made by Reynolds not long ago, where he used the formula of a political attack ad to poke fun at his friend, who is being mentioned in award talks for his role in a movie, The Frontrunner, that documents a political campaign. He finishes the video by saying "definitely see The Frontrunner."
