Aside from the fact that Amadeus Cho prepped for that encounter, Thor blasted her telepathic bolt with his own attack:
Anyways, I thought this thread was about mutants who can beat Thor, not mutants who can knock him off his feet.

Thor one shot Phoenix Rachael, AvX can suck it.Franklin and Legion obviously win, the rest lose.
The best part is that was written by Aaron, the current writer for God of Thunder. I remember him doing an interview some time after (Or before) where he describes reading up on Thor and being surprised by how powerful he was and trying to write him appropriately.
Which is why I hate Thor always appearing with the Avengers nowadays. So many writers who don't know a thing about him have to write him in because he's such a big part of the team when in the past, they would have just not included him.
I hope they have a rematch under Jason where he has Thor handle her business.

I dunno, it's a bit different because Cho would be unable to harm Thor without using his own power against him, which is not the case with Thor and Rachael.AvX can still suck it.
Thor had ninja law on his side. It's a different story 1 vs 1, as we have seen.
Btw, who is "Rachael"?

Tbf to Thor, Rachel had Avengers hate on her side. And if the X-Boards are anything to go by, it's more powerful then a million exploding Suns.
If anything, there was an X-Men hate going on during AvX. Magneto losing to Iron Man? Namor losing to Thing, under water? Warpath losing to Captain America in a blink of an eye? Captain America tanking Gambit's attack? Right...

Did you read what Namor was saying when he was attacking Thor with Rachel? It was like a post quotted from the X-Board it was so butthurt.
Captain America beating up Gambit and Warpath doesn't have anything to do with X-men hate imo and is due to the fact that he's Captain America and those two scrubs had no hope.
That aside, I agree, the X-men were shortchanged here and there, but the Avengers were too. Particularly in the X-men books from what I remember.

Yeah, shit happens when you post quickly from your phone. It doesn't detract from the immense douchieness of correcting someone on a incorrectly spelled name of all things.

And 😂 @ calling Cho on his prep.

Being knocked down by an opponent for a single panel is all but finished? What? She struck him ONCE:
And it should also be noted he was fighting Phoenix Namor solo before his fight with Rachel IIRC.

No, it stated that Thor somehow BOUNCED (The specific word used) her telepathic bolt back at her. He did so by firing a blast from Mjolnir so comparing it to the Amadeus Cho scene is faulty.
You don't know? Here:
The third panel specifically. Note the energy blast coming from Mjolnir.

So I'm not suppose to note that Amadeus Cho foresaw the attack and prepped his gear and even incorporated an adamantium capacitor (The only thing capable of redirecting a divine bolt) for his encounter with Thor?
Silly me. I should have known that pointing out context is against your religion.

Thor suckershotted Rachel and got chumped.

All he did was absorb and fire her TP bolt at her and create a psychic backlash. God, you're terrible.
You don't know? Here:Hahaha, you are pretty much ignoring what was flat out stated. Thor never fired a blast.
The third panel specifically. Note the energy blast coming from Mjolnir.He absorbed the TP bolt. You're sinking to carver level here.

Silly me. I should have known that pointing out context is against your religion.Do you point out the context behind Reed and Doom prepping too?

Lol? What? Here's the entire encounter, including some more of Thor's fight with Phoenix Namor:
Again, all she did was knock him down for LITERALLY a single panel. She knocked him off his feet. For maybe a FEW seconds.
At best she had him a disadvantage. Saying she had him ALL but beat, especially when he goes on to take on a Trans Tier character is RIDICULOUS.

Yes he was. They obviously had an extended -and competitive- battle off-panel. Seeing as how Thor was fighting Namor with the power of the Phoenix before and after, it's definitely something worth noting. He even seemed to have gotten the edge on Namor there as ridiculous as that would be.
Yes, she got in a good hit. But this thread is about mutants who have BEATEN Thor, not those who managed to take him off his feet for maybe a few seconds at best.
And you said Thor was "all but finished". Which is RIDICULOUS and blatantly untrue.

Yes there was. Look again:
He BOUNCED her telepathic bolt right back at her. But he used a blast from Mjolnir. He didn't use energy absorption.

Yes, Cho beat Thor but he had prep.
😐
Yes, I do. Whenever a character beats another with prep, particularly the geniuses, you ARE suppose to make a note of it as it is hugely important in regards to context.
Smh.

I don't count any Thor low showings from those comics, or from that time period in general.

Prof X, who really did OWN everyone there, saw Rachel as the greater threat than P5 Namor. He had to take her out first, in a prolonged battle mind you, before he could take out everyone else.
He insta pwned Thor and crew yet it took a while to put Rachel down. The writer of that book made it clear who the real threat was, so her downing Thor isn't shocking.
