Brock Anderson

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

The article should be deleted and redirected to his father‘s page, Arn Anderson. Here‘s why: simply put, he doesn’t meet the notability guidelines. He has wrestled a total of 3 televised matches since signing with AEW and is only known as his father‘s son. As of yet, he doesn’t have an individual career that justifies an own article. This is unlikely to change any time soon and as long as that is the case, he should be redirected. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DasallmächtigeJ (talk • contribs) 02:51, August 14, 2023 (UTC)

Relisting comment: Relisting. Also, encouraging editors to consider the nominator's suggestion of a Redirect (and it doesn't take an AFD nomination to redirect an article).

 * Keep - He's a newer wrestler who just debuted in 2021, but there's plenty of coverage on him. He's signed by the 2nd biggest promotion in wrestling right now. While he has had few appearances on TV, he's had 35 appearances total for AEW so far - here and just appeared on TV last week. @DasallmächtigeJ please see WP:CRYSTAL. Nobody officially knows how Brock's career will turn out. I also think is a waste of time since it will just be re-posted if it were to be deleted due to him being active.

 * Delete. We don't have GNG-level sourcing covering this Anderson independently of his father, which is the only thing that matters in determining notability. The WrestlingInc story is almost entirely quotes and is presented in the context of his father; Fightful is just two paragraphs of quotes from his father; IWD is a stats database; LWOS is no better than a group blog where anyone can apply to write and "maybe get paid" (aka not professional journalists) and the cited article is again in the context of his dad; the Wrestling Headlines piece is by a "Las Vegas based actor and circus performer" whose full name isn't even provided, and the piece is just quotes from his dad; Wrestle Talk and Ringside News are both GUNREL; and the Slam Wrestling piece is an opinion column with a passing mention of Brock.

 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Keep-I have added several more sources. Unfortunately for Brock, he will always be in his father's shadow so there will be very few articles that do not link the two.--Gri3720 (talk) 13:14, 21 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep Multiple sources now added, appeared numerous times on AEW, a national Television show, see no reason why he shouldn't have an article. Thief-River-Faller (talk) 11:42, 27 August 2023 (UTC)
