A recent training match was particularly interesting. After seeing pictures of a Precious Lucy intergender chain match featured here on G.L.O.R.Y., Johnny made some comments to the effect that women shouldn't expect to win such brutal matches against male opponents. Lady Victoria, not surprisingly, took exception to his statements. Before long, tempers were flaring and the husband and wife agreed to step into their private gym for a no-holds-barred mixed match to settle the matter!
Luckily, a photographer who was there to take some photos of a few practicing student wrestlers was able to capture the action as Johnny Rayz and Lady Victoria cleared the ring to do battle.
It was Lady Victoria who insisted on the match being not only no-holds-barred, but also to a submission finish. No pins, no disqualifications. "Let's just see who screams 'I give' first," Victoria smiled. All training and practice came to a halt in the gym as the students stopped their workouts to watch the match.
Today we see the opening moments of the battle. After a brief lock-up, it's Johnny Rayz who takes the advantage as he clamps on a tough side headlock. The students watching the action could see that nothing was being held back as Johnny's bicep and forearm bulged while tightening around his opponent's skull.
As far as Rayz was concerned, the fact that his opponent was also his wife made no difference. He intended to make his point by making Lady V. scream 'I give' loud and clear!

A scoop-up off the mat leads to a hard bodyslam of the blonde powerhouse. Obvious to all those watching the action is the fact that Rayz seemingly will not let a marriage certificate get in the way of teaching his opponent a lesson about intergender warfare! In fact, Rayz seems to delight in yanking Victoria up by her hair for a series of slams. Though early in the contest, it appears that Lady V. has bitten off more than she can chew in agreeing to this no-holds-barred match. More action tomorrow..." ;}elseif (date("j",$pod_date)== 3) { $W=318 ;$H=300 ;$PicCaption = "Cocky from his dominance of his female opponent early in the match, Johnny Rayz left himself open for a counter-attack from Lady Victoria.

(Rayz later claimed that he was the victim of a low blow...Victoria denies it...and no one who saw it can say for certain exactly where the shot landed.) What IS certain is that the follow-up rights and lefts that the kneeling Victoria sent to Rayz gut hurt him and doubled him over.
At that point, it was Vic's turn to use the hair as she snapped the stunned Rayz down to the mat. Lady Victoria was finally in control as she planted a knee between Rayz shoulders and laced her fingers under his chin. Here you can see Johnny Rayz suffering and trying to peel his opponent's hands loose to relieve the pressure on his neck. But Victoria's bulging biceps and triceps kept the hold tight as she ordered her husband to submit.
Was Lady Victoria able to get Rayz to surrender? We'll find out tomorrow..." ;}elseif (date("j",$pod_date)== 4) { $W=346 ;$H=300 ;$PicCaption = "Johnny Rayz was not about to surrender to his wife so quickly...regardless of the pain he was in! Instead, he absorbed the pain of Lady Victoria's chinlock and slowly worked his way to his knees. Vic countered by clamping on an armlock and working over Johnny's muscular left arm and shoulder. The strong blonde G.L.O.R.Y Girl struggled to maintain the hold while her opponent searched for various ways to break free. Nothing worked for Rayz until he decided to just club his way loose by battering Lady V. with a series of hard forearm blows to the chest. Victoria held on through four of the vicious blows...but the fifth shot did the trick for Rayz as he staggered his opponent back into the ropes. The wild battle continues tomorrow!" ;}elseif (date("j",$pod_date)== 5) { $W=334 ;$H=300 ;$PicCaption = "Johnny Rayz was able to finally blast his way out of Lady Victoria's hold and go back on the offensive. His clubbing forearms across Vic's chest put our girl on the mat and allowed Rayz the chance to clamp on this intricate hold. A simple lock-up of Victoria's legs was not good enough for Rayz...he also added to his opponent's discomfort by grabbing the wrists and wrenching her arms. Although her shoulders are pinned, remember that this is an "I give!" match which both agreed to. Shoulders to the mat mean nothing.
Lady Victoria's clenched teeth show the pain she's in...but there will be no submission here. Miffed that Victoria refuses to submit, Rayz even pushes with his right foot on his tied-up opponent's butt in an attempt to place even more pressure on her already stretched and throbbing spine. The pain is intense for the powerful blonde, but Lady Victoria still will not give up! More tomorrow..." ;}elseif (date("j",$pod_date)== 6) { $W=318 ;$H=300 ;$PicCaption = "We've seen a lot of action in this husband vs. wife no-holds-barred match between Lady Victoria and Johnny Rayz. So far, Rayz has dished-out the majority of the punishment--but Lady V. has been hanging in there. Today's picture shows us an obviously desperate Rayz who is doing whatever he can to get the win.
Here we can see him locking-in a torturous abdominal stretch that has Victoria screaming in agony. The big guy continues to demand Vic's surrender, but the tough-as-nails G.L.O.R.Y. Girl refuses. Incensed that he can't bring about her submission, Rayz adds to Victoria's torment by slamming her stomach with massive forearm shots. Still no surrender! Rayz goes so far as trying to crack the muscular blonde's ribs as he bangs-away with destructive elbow blows. Lady V. screams in pain--BUT SHE WILL NOT SUBMIT!
Will Johnny Rayz succeed in battering his opponent until she screams "I quit!"? Or, will Lady Victoria find a way to turn it around and get Rayz to submit? Tomorrow: The conclusion to this exciting match!

Nothing that Johnny Rayz threw at the blonde warrior was enough to force her to surrender. Frustrated, Rayz eventually realized that Victoria would NEVER submit to him and he finally "lost it".
Hoisting Lady Victoria high overhead, Rayz shows his strength here as he presses her upward. Lady V. can only grit her teeth as she awaits the inevitable landing.
The match ended when the enraged Rayz took a few steps and tossed Victoria over the top rope and out of the ring. Victoria was helped off the floor and led out of the gym by some students. But the fact remains--SHE DID NOT GIVE UP!
These two fought long and hard to try to show that they were right. Johnny Rayz wanted to prove that a woman couldn't hang with a man in a tough, no-holds-barred battle. Lady Victoria was out to show that a well-trained woman could stand toe-to-toe in the ring with a male opponent and compete successfully.
