Wouldn't that type of hold be effective against the strongest if they were relatively the same size? Being pinned in that kind of way, defies strength, because in practice it uses the person's strength against the person. Don't believe it? Look at Gordon Ryan, he made the strongest man in the world tap. It had nothing to do with strength. Demetrius Johnson a guy weighing 140 lbs at about 5'3" recently defeated a 6 plus foot 300 plus pound man.
Black Panther in that scene used one of those exact moves. The Surfer could have gone intangible at any time, which begs the question of who was actually in control?
Physically however, without using his powers, he was legitimately pinned.
My brother in Christ, the difference in strength between the two is/was exponential. This wasn't two human beings fighting (no matter the size and weight difference). Surfer has a CL70-100 strength. This was a human being vs a cosmic entity that has superhuman strength. And this assumes Surfer would just keep if physical, he could have let loose an omnidirectional blast from his person and literally fried Black Panther. Everything about that fight is 100% bullsh|t.
For reference, the SPiderman/Firelord "fight" (please log in to view the image)
FIrelord could have ended Spiderman whenever he wanted.

Silver Surfer can account for access and adapt so that his strength is concentration. Then he can burn through steel with a thought. Captain Marvel might be able to concentrate her power of a white hole and equal a Hulk induced strength that wins the fight. Carol Danvers is strong.

OK, but understand that the Captain Marvel that I'm using here is Billy Batson in his suped up form that took on the Spectre in the 'Day of Vengeance' arc, NOT Carol Danvers.

A white hole can be extreme and break the record. Carol should go the distance. She can do things that are seen so that her feminine intuition breaks the mold.

DS and Zop, strength really doesn't matter when a person has no leverage. In that scene, in order for the Surfer to free himself, he would have had to dislocate his shoulder and pop the capsule in his elbow to free himself.
Let's say that you two are correct and I'm wrong, no one could ever prove it because such a disparity has never existed. You could be correct. However because of his humanoid or human anatomy, Black Panther sought to exploit conditions that would make it literally impossible for Norrin to escape without doing extreme harm to himself. That exact pin causes the person who is pinned to exert force upon their own joints in order to escape. The stronger the person is, the more pressure that there is to exert upon their joints. In short, the pain of escaping is greater than the tolerance that one can take in order to proceed with the escape.
The Surfer escaping on sheer brute strength alone would make less sense imo.
The Surfer at any time could have released an AOE, or become intangible to escape, but he was pinned.
Why can't he just straighten his right arm? The amount of pressure BP is exerting on that shoulder joint - compared to a star, or a black hole, is nothing.
The whole point of the hammer lock is that it decreases the amount of strength and opponent can bring, true - but even 1% of the amount of strength a guy who has supposedly infinite Power Cosmic strength, is, well infinite.
