While Vader uses the Force, connected to all things. If he was in Tolkien's universe, Vader only has a superficial use of the spiritual energy of things, while Sauron and the Witch king ARE the spiritual force.
If you transport vader to LOTR universe he would be like witch king, as sauron would be like the emperor. If you do the inverse and send witch king to SW universe, he would be a sith lord. So, Vader would win in both stages cause witch king has crappy sword skills
