He is the son of WWE Hall of Famer Arn Anderson.[1][2]

Professional wrestling career

Education and training (2019–2021)

Anderson has stated that he had wanted to become a professional wrestler since the age of twelve. He wanted to begin his wrestling career immediately after high school, during which he was also a highly-ranked football player, but his parents encouraged him to go to college first. He graduated from East Carolina University in 2019 and began training as a professional wrestler in 2021.[3][4]

All Elite Wrestling (2021–2023)

Prior to Lunde's first appearance, he had been spotted at All Elite Wrestling (AEW) events.[5] On the March 29, 2021, episode of the podcast The Arn Show on the Ad Free Shows network, it was revealed by Lunde's father Arn Anderson that Lunde had signed a contract with AEW and had been training by Q. T. Marshall and Glacier at the Nightmare Factory, AEW's training facility. Lunde was also trained by professional wrestler Lodi.[6]

Lunde first appeared on the June 11, 2021 (taped June 5) episode of AEW Dynamite. In an interview with Tony Schiavone, Lunde alongside his father and performer/executive vice-president of AEW Cody Rhodes, announced that he would be wrestling with the company as Brock Anderson as a new member of the Nightmare Family.[5][7] Anderson made his professional wrestling debut on June 18, 2021 (taped June 6). He teamed with fellow Rhodes defeating Q. T. Marshall and Aaron Solow in a match on Dynamite.[8][1][9] About his debut, Anderson stated that he was nervous but credited Cody Rhodes as a calming force.[10] In response to the debut, Jim Cornette said that, despite many positives, Brock’s lack of experience showed and he needed more matches in front of smaller crowds before he should return to national television. He also thought Brock getting the pin on his debut was “a little gratuitous” and “too obvious”.[11]

Since debuting, Anderson has also performed in matches on AEW Dark and AEW Dark: Elevation, including matches with and against Billy Gunn and his son Colten Gunn.[9][12] In July 2022, he teamed with Brian Pillman Jr. to challenge the Rock 'n' Roll Express as part of Ric Flair's Last Match. The team of Anderson and Pillman went on to win the match by pinfall.[13] Anderson's initial contract with the promotion was set to expire in May 2023.[14] Later that year he took some time away from wrestling to improve his physique. He returned to action in June in noticeably better shape.[15] On October 10, 2023, Anderson's profile was removed from the AEW active roster page.[16]

Personal life

Lunde is the son of retired professional wrestler and WWE Hall of Famer Arn Anderson. Lunde had a brother named Barrett.[17]
