That isn't proof of anything of the sort. You are basing your entire argument on just not like certain aspects of the fight and trying to justify Thor being weaker when that wasn't alluded to at all in this book. Thor was powered back up and took the fight to the Hulk.
So you’re going to completely ignore what I stated? Facts such as Thor needed a ten times amp in strength just to hold his own, needed Mjolnir and was going all out just to hold his own?
You’re just arguing for no other reason than arguing if you are honestly going to ignore all that. Where does it even say he is at full power?
He strikes the ground some lightning crackles, and you assume his back to full power? If anything we should assume a portion of his power is returned, unless stated that he was back at full powers. Throw in the fact that even under those circumstances he could just to survive and hold his own instead of curb stomping the Hulk, while in the past he has been able to stalemate the Hulk for entire hours in strength while holding back despite any circumstances, mean his anything but at full power. To suggest otherwise is simply illogical looking at Thor’s level of strength and how well he has done against the Hulk in the past.

And in this fight he took on Hulk for hours and couldn't put him down. Seems like much of the same to me.
You’re blatantly ignoring what I’m saying. There is nothing the same here. Thor while holding back, under more stressful conditions, and for even a longer period time, was more than capable of stalemating the Hulk in strength for hours. Here with a ten times amp, Mjolnir in hand and going all out, and all he could do was survive.
They fought for only a little more than an hour in this fight. Where does it say they fought for entire hours on end? They’ve only fought for so long once as I recall.

You are actually arguing against yourself now. The hammer has never been shown to easily take out the Hulk.
What the hell are you talking about?
Then you haven’t read enough of their fights.

And? The Hulk amps himself with anger. Seeing as how the Hulk was seething in rage I don't see the problem here.
facepalm
He was seething with pure rage and hate in those other fights and he could do nothing more than stalemate Thor, even despite the fact Thor restrains himself.

So what? The point of his hand stinging was to emphasize the ferocity of this battle. Nothing more and nothing less.
The point of his hand stinging was to show how much Thor was depowered. Thor has thrown Mjolnir at speeds far faster than light, and recalled it back without so much as being phase, while here when he recalled it, his entire body was pulled back, and he yelled in pain, and in shock.

Thor was killed in future imperfect. Any kind of explosion can be changed into a plot device AND WHETHER OR NOT IT WOULD KILL THOR ISN'T THE POINT. The point is that Hulk thought enough of Thor's safety during this ferocious battle. Thor was still more of an animal at this battle's conclusion that Hulk was.
Would you stop trying to make excuses and trying to find a cop out? “Future Imperfect” was an alternate time line where, Thor could have been depowered, or any number of things. The situation here is different.
No, that is the point, which is something you seem to keep misunderstanding. The fact that such an explosion was presumably fatal to Thor, even further solidifies the fact that Thor was weakened severely. It was not only strength but durability as well. This also shown by the fact that, a punch from Hulk and some cold water can stun him so severely and bring him to his knees. I mean Thor has withstood attacks capable of destroying a planet in space physically unharmed.
