The Kansas City Chiefs were big winners in Week 1 against the Denver Broncos on Monday Night Football. The return of offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy helped fuel the unit's explosive 31-point output and caught the attention of many spectators.
Bieniemy now sports a full beard on the sidelines, drawing comparisons to a WWE Hall of Famer. 'The World's Strongest Man' Mark Henry took to his X account on Tuesday evening to playfully acknowledge the facial similarities between the two men.
"Happy to have returned to the sideline of the Kansas City Chiefs," posted Henry, "and bring Patrick Mahomes back from his injury!"

Henry was a WWE World Champion during his wrestling career and remains with the company under a Legends contract. He is a former powerlifter and two-time Olympic weightlifter. He also won the inaugural Arnold Strongman Classic in 2002.
Bieniemy spent nine years as an assistant coach and coordinator with Kansas City before leaving ahead of the 2023 season. He's already made an impression on this year's team in one game as the Chiefs look to maintain momentum into Week 2 against the Indianapolis Colts.
