Default SLightly unique door issue

Alright, so I know there is tons of threads on the door and lock linkages getting stuck but none of them are with the door locked shut. my rear passenger door is stuck closed and locked. when you try to push the unlock rocker it binds halfway and neither the inside or outside handle work. I had thois problem befor and enough yanking and punching fixed it but then I locked the door and its ben stuck for about 2 years now and I'm getting tired of it(as are my friends) ive tried numerous ways of getting the door panel off but its impossible with the door shut ive sprayed well over 2 cans of pb blaster in it over the years ive jiggled everything.
Any ideas?
The first time I fixed it I gutted the door and cleaned out the entire mechanism and lubed it . there is no tension on the outer handle( button) and very little tension on inner handle but I know all the linkages are intact
Thanks in advance everyone

the inside bench seat is removable, it has a little lever and you can slide it out. Once it's out. You should have plenty of room to take the door panel off and fix it.
