Added DiffLines:
'''Basic Trope''': Two people grab each others' hands and try to overpower the other.
* '''Straight''': During a particularly vicious brawl, [[ShockAndAwe Electro]][[EmpoweredBadassNormal -]][[TheBrute Man]] and [[TheJuggernaut Hellraiser]] [[RedBaron The]] [[NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast Uncontainable]] interlock fingers and try to oppose each other. At one point, it even looks like Electro-Man is actually ''pushing'' Hellraiser back!
* '''Exaggerated''': The brawler lock is so intense ''it splits the ground beneath them''.
* '''Downplayed''': The brawler lock is less of a grapple and more of a PunchParry that turns into a test of strength and will.
* '''Justified''': Their hands got entangled in the fight, and they're too laser focused on overpowering their opponent to even think of untangling.
* '''Inverted''': Electro-Man and Hellraiser furiously engage in a brutal tug of war, eventually resulting in them constantly pirouetting and trying to throw the other guy into the air.
* '''Subverted''':
** The two try going in for a brawler lock... But [[FlyingBrick Superio]] and [[HulkMashUp The Awe-Inspiring Dolt]] break them up before anything too crazy happens.
** The two try going in for a brawler lock... But one of them [[UseYourHead headbutts]] the other or otherwise tosses them away, preventing one from happening.
* '''Double Subverted''':
** The combined forces of both Superio and The Awe-Inspiring Dolt are ''not'' enough for these two to still attempt one.
** One of them keeps a brutal grip on the other's hands, practically invoking this trope.
* '''Parodied''': The entire brawler lock is surprisingly similar to a SumoWrestling competition; [[SpiderManSendUp Tarantu-Dude]] picks up a war fan, Electro-Man and Hellraiser assume stances, and the entire fight shares similar rituals to an actual sumo wrestling match.
* '''Zig-Zagged''': There are times when they try going for a brawler lock, and times when slugging it out is a better option.
* '''Averted''': Neither go for this at all.
* '''Enforced''': To show off the strength of both Electro-Man and Hellraiser, the writers looked for something that was particularly epic but doesn't involve much slugging. This trope will do.
* '''Lampshaded''': Electro-Man and Hellraiser share some TrashTalk.
--> '''Electro-Man''': ''[[GratuitousJapanese Yossha]]''... Let's get t'comparin' our strengths, tough guy!"
--> '''Hellraiser''': "Your efforts of overpowering me will be rendered futile, puny child. I'll crush you like a bug."
* '''Invoked''': The two of them decide, out of bravado and arrogance, to try and overpower each other by grabbing each other, interlocking fingers, and trying to push the other guy and assert dominance in general.
* '''Exploited''':
** Someone, be it a {{redshirt}}, Tarantu-Dude, or the other superheroes, take advantage of the two grappling it out, and promptly defeat them while they're distracted.
** Electro-Man shocks Hellraiser to a crisp in this brawler lock. Either that, or Hellraiser throws in a GroinAttack.
* '''Defied''': Every character ''goes out of their way'' to ensure that this ''never'' happens.
* '''Discussed''': "Look at these two brutes, trying to overpower each other... Pretty damn stupid."
* '''Conversed''': "Of course, the classic brawler lock. For when your fists get entangled in one another.
* '''Implied''': Electro-Man and Hellraiser furiously approach each other, before the scene cuts away to another part of the action scene. We cut back to them, and one of them's noticeably tired and laid on their ass, while the other is rubbing their hands (particularly their fingers) as if they've partook in one of these.
* '''Deconstructed''':
** The brawler lock goes pretty much nowhere, causing the two to tire out, and a stalemate ensues.
** (Of exaggerated) The ground splits apart, which causes city wide earthquakes.
* '''Reconstructed''':
** That is, until one of them throws the other guy, or gains a quick advantage while the other's too tired and distracted.
** (Of exaggerated) They take ample care to not do that again.
* '''Played for Laughs''': One of them decides to try and headbutt the other in an attempt to break them up. They kiss instead, and the brawler lock is broken as the two embarrassedly wipe their mouths.
* '''Played for Drama''': These two are on the brink of defeat, and they try and grab onto each other as one last ditch attempt at a chance at winning the fight.
* '''Played for Horror''': The brawler lock is ''positively'' brutal; Their nails dig into each others' skins so deeply that it draws blood, and the two have been beating each other senseless.
