Really depends how resistant to TP Thor is. If he only has a minor resistance, then he's going to get turned into a vegetable. If he can weather her TP long enough to get some blasts off, his chances of winning are really good.

Thor's TP resistance is something that varies from writer to writer, I've noticed. Depending on the circumstance, I see Maxima's TK being more useful in temporarily disarming Thor than her TP.
^ True. Aside from her physical attributes, her only real viable tactics in this match are TP/TK. Any of her other energy-based abilities (psi-beams/shielding) would be absorbed.

Mostly, but not entirely. For instance, after being drastically weakened in a previous battle with Starbreaker, Max was still able to telekinetically close massive fissures of earth.

Wasn't the hammer knocked off course twice (at least that I can remember)? Both times I remember it being done by Quasar. Once was in an Avengers issue when they were training. He knocked the hammer off course as it was about to land in Thor's hand and She-Hulk had to snatch Captain America's shield and block it because it was flying around erratically.
Second time was when Masterson Thor and Enchantress controlled Quasar fought. He stopped the hammer from returning to Thor by encasing it in a Quantum bubble.
I'd wager Maxima's TK is at LEAST as powerful as Quasar's blast or Quantum bubble.

ya know, the more i see this bandied about, the more i'm tending towards viewing that scene as PIS. it is so far outside the scope of her usual showings that it stands out like a sore thumb. :/
thor CAN be defeated by tp though. if not tp, thor wins.
That doesn't mean Maxima can challenge or overpower the enchantment or anything. Not if Thor wants it back. As you could see, Masterson shattered the construct, and we all know the enchantment > Thor's strength. I'd explain it away as Masterson not being the true Thor (I think there's one more scene where it doesn't return to his hand).
The returning enchantment isn't the same level of power every time across the board -nothing is- but the major consistency from what I can tell is that when Thor actively wills it back, Mjolnir comes back. You'd need Skyfather level power to have any say in it imo. And for good measure:

She doesn't have to overwhelm it, just keep it away from her and Thor and I wager she can. Her TK has done some impressive things. Also I remember Ultimo knocking Mjolinir out the air and it failed to return to Thor's hand. He actually overpowered the enchantment.

Keep it away from Thor? When his willing it back? I highly doubt it. And she sure as hell wouldn't be in any condition to fight Thor while attempting to do it. Her telekinesis has never been Skyfather level from what I've seen. I think she had a decent showing against Starbreaker once though.
That would have to be annual in the 60's. IIRC, the scene was similar but different to the one from Quasar. The underlying difference being that Thor threw his hammer when Ultimo stopped it with his ray and it didn't return (The impossible!). Less impressive than stopping it while in return and it's not a violation of the enchantment. At least not when further developed.
It however should be noted that at this moment, in the Thor series, Thor was fighting the Enchanters who were messing with Mjolnir, and at the end of the story, Thor was bereft of his special powers. I don't recall if there was any acknowledgment of it in the Avengers story but something worth not and would be an easy explaniation. Thor threw some lightning around however.
There is the scene in the first Surfer fight (I think it more closely resembles what she would have to do) but Thor was noticeably holding back and when he actively wills the hammer back, it's superior to his physical strength. Like I said, you'd need Skyfather level power to mess with it's return. Unfortunately, Thor seems to very rarely actually put effort into calling Mjolnir.
