Daniel Haines vs Gloria Star — Standard Match (No Submissions)

[SRG]

Once again both cousins were back to being locked in with each other for a test of strength as both heavyweights were pushing back as if their lives depended on it! Even with Gloria being determined to win this bout, she didn't mind throwing in a playful jab at her cousin. "Oh is that so?" Gloria chuckled under her breathe raising an eyebrow playfully. "Tell ya what, since we're both thick headed why not this? If I win I'll you give a training lesson, free of charge of course." Gloria added on teasing Dany even more at the prospect of him needing to be trained rather then the other way around as Gloria continued to grit her teeth.

It was at that moment Gloria saw her opportunity to go all in on pushing Danny back. Her eyes shifted ad saw his body trembling as if she was starting to gain more ground in the test of strength. Realizing this, Gloria leaned her head down knowing if she had to act the time was now!"AORAA!!!" The superhero bellowed out a battle cry as she began to flex her biceps even more exerting more strength from them trying to push Danny closer and closer to the turnbuckle to gain the lead in this match!

Danny felt himself being driven back and he was in shock. He shook his head and tried to stonewall Gloria doing his best to not only halt her pushing him back but to gain ground as well! "Not gonna happen... not today..." Danny said. He had been in LAW much longer than Gloria. He had never been in a big match like this and it took him a lot longer to be on the big stage. He knew if he lost here and blew it that it would be a very long time before he got a sniff of a PPV again. He doubled down giving it his all with all that in the back of his mind.

Gloria could feel her chance of victory growing closer by the second. Even with all the sweat pouring from the top of her head she could feel Danny slowly losing ground and was closing the gap between the two and the turnbuckle! Gloria gritted her teeth and narrowed her eyes as she felt like this could be her big break. Not only winning her first LAW PPV but also finally beating Danny, one of her lifelong dreams finally achieved. However, Danny was no quitter either as he too wanted to win his first PPV as well. "Sorry Daniel, but there's one this is!" Gloria gritted her teeth as she squeezed tightly onto Danny's hands trying to gain full control!

Had she been successful the superhero would push full steam ahead! Gloria would aim to use as much strength as she could to get to that turnbuckle!"Sorry Danny, but I worked too hard for this!" She muttered quietly for only Danny to hear as she was determined to corner Danny to try and trap him in the corner for her next big move!

[Highfly]

Danny was pushing and somehow, some way he was just utterly failing. He was pressed back against the corner and tried to knee Sophia in the abdomen and shove her away before he was stuck but given how things were going he wasn't sure it would be enough. He was in shock at her outright overpowering him and his best asset was not enough which did not bode well for him at all!

[SRG]

Gloria was doing it; she was moving Danny into the corner until she finally did it! The muscular superhero had the strength and will power to corner Danny in a corner to trap him like a rat. A proud smirk grew across as she was now one step closer to finally beating her cousin once and for all. "ACKKK!!!" Right as Gloria was confident she had Danny in position for set up for a bigger move, she was hit by a knee strike right in the abdomen causing her cough out in pain. The superhero stumbled back only a few feet covering her abdomen in pain as her head was lowered as she gritted her teeth with a look of pure frustration on her face."I was so close..... damn it I know this hurts like hell, but I gotta keep going. If I don't strike now, I may not get another chance...." Gloria thought to herself as she heaved in and out letting out deep breaths as she eyed Daniel like a sniper looking at their target.

Gloria grunted in pain as she went to close the gap between them with a shoulder tackle! "ORAHHHH!!!!" The American superhero shouted a battle cry as she made her move to hopefully connect and hit Daniel here and now!

[Highfly]

Danny was hurting and quite surprised by how things were going. He shook his head and tried to get himself together managing to do so right as Gloria came rushing in! Danny wasn't going to stop or stonewall her... not now... maybe not ever given how she outmuscled him. He rolled out of the way as quick as he could, stumbling to his hands and knees but leaving Gloria to crash hard into the corner! He would get up and try to follow up by grabbing hold of Gloria and lifting her up before stepping forward to smash her across his knee with a backbreaker to try to get himself back into the match.

[SRG]

The superhero charged at her cousin like a bull trying to hit its prey with its horns. Gloria was going all out with her assault on Danny as she needed to keep up the momentum by hopefully being able to stun him to build to a bigger move. As she got closer, she looked at him with her eyebrows tight and narrow with her teeth gritting with determination as she made it ever so closer to her cousin. Then out of nowhere, right before she was close enough, Danny grabbed the ropes and pulled himself away! "HUH!? NO!" Gloria gasped as her eyes popped with fear as now she built up too much speed to where there was no way she could stop herself at this point and now just had to brace for impact! Everything felt like it was no emotional for Gloria was taking one last step before.... "AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH" Gloria shouted bellowing out a scream of agony as she crashed shoulder first into the turnbuckle!!! The superhero stumbled back in pain in a dazed state. While many may not have notice Danny's dodge roll not only saved him but also dislocated Gloria's shoulder! It was aching without remorse as she squinted her eyes heaving in and out through her stomach leaving her wide open for whatever Danny had up his sleeve.

As Gloria tried to bite down her lips to ease the pain, it gave Danny time to grab her "AH NOT NOW DANIEL!" She winced shaking her head contorting in pain as she was lifted up in an impressive feat of strength. "Ahhh damn it... AHHH!!!" Gloria continue to wince in distress as her eyes sild down seeing how far the drop would be if Danny let her fall and hit the mat. She couldn't do much given her bad shoulder, but it wouldn't matter as Gloria was pulled down and slammed spine first onto Danny's back! "AHHH!!!" Another scream came from the American superhero as she let out faint pants of breath as it seemed like everything was going wrong for her. Her shoulder was dislocated, her spine was aching from the backbreaker, everything was spelling doom for the blonde powerhouse as Danny was now in control of the bout as she tried to get off of his shoulder to hopefully get her time to recoup after what transpired.

[Highfly]

Danny was starting to fight back and he managed to fight back. Gloria was really hurting and he was trying to keep up the momentum. He pulled her up and sent her running to the ropes giving chase immediately. He was moving full speed and looking to smash into Gloria as soon as she hit the ropes hoping to clothesline her right over to the outside! He couldn't afford to lose this. She just showed up and was in a PPV already. Danny had been around for a while. He wanted to be more than just a big guy with family ties to Alaina. More than just Irelia's fiancé. He was happy that the women in his family were successful but he didn't want to just be overshadowed all the time.

He had to win and he was putting everything into this clothesline to launch Gloria over the top!

[SRG]

Gloria was in pure agony as not only was her shoulder dislocated, meaning she lost one half of her greatest strength but also her spine was on fire from the drop to Danny's knee felt like scorching heat. "Hu...Ha...Huh..." Gloria panted out exhausted as she tried to weakly roll off of her cousins shoulder but to no avail as she was kept firmly down along Daniel's knee. She groaned as Danny pulled her up to a standing position and before she could swing with her only good arm she was yanked backwards before being pulled forward to be sent towards the ropes!"AHHH....Ompfff.." Gloria yelled as the superhero was stumbling forward running before she was stopped by gripping onto the ropes with her arm slung over. "I....gotta...get... my... arm... fixed..." Gloria panted out frustratedly as she felt the sweat coming down from her brow as she glanced over at her dislocated shoulder, without that arm working there was no way she could win. However right before she could put it back into place Gloria heard something, something that made her face lower with dread as it could only be Danny. As Gloria glanced back there was Danny coming in hot for a powerful clothesline! "NO!! I GOTTA MOVE!" Gloria said to herself with her face lighting up with fear trying to pull herself away from her cousins incoming assault but he was too close to make any reasonable distance before getting hit by him! ""GAHHH!!!" Gloria spat as her face contorted in pain as Danny built up enough momentum to send the giant blonde over the ropes and on a first-class trip to the outside of the ring!

BOOOOMMM

A loud thud was heard as Gloria connected with the outside of the ring, causing everyone to gasp, especially her parents and as if a light bulb went out, everyone was silent. Gloria's eyes winced as everything was hurting as some people were beginning to assume this match was over and done. Gloria laid there panting out like a dog lost in her own thoughts. "Come on Sophia..... you gotta get up.... if not how can you face Alaina in the ring?" She thought to herself as her eyes slowly began to open up as she laid on her backside. "No way she's still in there!?" One audience member pointed out with everyone standing up in shock that Gloria was still awake after that fall. "Come on.... take it... slowly..." Gloria gritted to herself as she winced in pain trying to get up slowly despite the pain raking throughout her body. Once seated to a sitting position, Gloria placed her hand underneath her arm putting firm pressure on it as she began to bite down on her lips closing her eyes bracing for what she was about to do. "AHHHHH!!!!" Gloria cried out as she began to pull her arm up and stretched it backwards before. POP There it was, her shoulder popped back into place causing some audience members to gag as Gloria let out a moan of relief as her shoulder was not only back in but better than ever! She slowly turned her head before looking straight at a still in ring Daniel giving him a challenging grin. "What's the matter? Never seen a grown woman pop her own shoulder back into place? How about I come back into that ring to show you what I can do with more than just one arm. Unless you aren't scared to fight outside the ring, Daniel Haines."" Gloria lowered her eyebrow playfully exuding confidence despite the pain she was in as she, all the while leaving it up for Daniel to decide what's next. Gloria playfully asked about entering back into the ring what a gentleman should do or if he was willing to get his hands dirty and fight outside the ring even saying his full name is a stern yet flirty way. All the while, Gloria was pushing her back up to a standing position, a little shaky but was able to catch herself and keep her balance as she dusted herself off putting her hands firmly on her hips awaiting Danny's answer.

[Highfly]

Danny was in the ring watching and now couldn't help but feel like he was just... there. Gloria was stealing the show and there was nothing he could do about it. On the outside he looked passive and asone faced as he watched Gloria pop her shoulder back.

Inside? He felt awful for having done that to her as it was not at all his intention. He was unhappy with himself for that outcome and causing her a potential injury. He also felt like he was unable to do anything that could keep her down adding to his own biggest fears about his time in LAW so far. He was conflicted to say the least and his focus was wavering.

He shook his head as she acted like nothing happened before calling him out. She put him in a situation he had no desire to be in. If he went ro the outside he looked like a bully if he let her come back in he looked like a passive chump.

Danny took a deep breath and went to the outside. He had to prove he was more than a set piece or extra for the people around him. He would immediately move towards Gloria and swing away to try to overwhelm her!
