Yeah, I placed a error message in place of header to make sure and it echoes out every time and I var dump sessions in its place works out perfectly every time it’s just like it is ignoring header. I can echo out on either side and display it on the index.php. Thanks for the reply and willingness to help.

As per the HTTP RFC specification, the Location header won't work if any other data has already been sent. This includes other headers, response content (which sets headers automatically), and (afaik) session tokens, so you may need to figure out a different method of data flow.

The second validation, if the fetched data and the Post Data are equal is very nice, but i hope that you are escaping SQL-interpretable Signs in the Form Data, because with enough motivation and some Ideas, it is possible to overwrite the User Data.
And without escaping your Query is vulnerable to injection, even with pdo Prepared Statements
// POST DATA
// gamertag=' or 'a'='a'#--'
//gamertag='test' or 'a'='a
