Really this debate is getting to be just plain freaking ridiculous. Indeed WWH there was some PIS in WWH but trying to say that he should have bin unable to defeat anybody in the series and calling the entire series PIS is simply foolish and shows terrible bias.
IF i was to arrange it in order of difficulty id have change strange and the sentry because strange is definitely more powerful and also move BB up. That being said reagrding the rest of the characters id have to say that WWH can taking anyone on the list barring Dr strange of course. Really the only reason he won was because strange did not fight to his best. Besides that there was not really much PIS in the series.
To start with the black bolt incident, the blackbolt was a skrull first of all and really there was no proof that he screamed. Considering that BB has almost never screamed i consider a big stretch to assume the skrull screamed in that incident. Now to assume that the hulk should not have been able to take the scream really is wrong as it blatantly disregards what the writers of the series tried to do in both palnet hulk and WWH, which was portray hulk at a level much stronger than he has been portrayed in the past. Considering that WWH was the angriest version of hulk weve seen it is obviuos that he would be both stronger and more durable than previous hulks. Him taking the skrull BB whisper is not PIS in anyway as it just shows the improved durability and there were many other displays of this during the saga. Now to divert a little there really is no proof that WWH cannot take the reall BBs whisper. Using the past encounters between hulk and blacbolt is foolish because it also disregards the fact that hulk at this point was far stronger and more durable than in the past. Also some of the other feats he did in the arc show this. For example, in the past the durability gap between the hulk and silver surfer was quite a bit during planet hulk the hulk went through the same blackhole as the silver surfer and actually came out better off. Not to say that because of this one feat he is now more durable but it certainly shows the great increase as his durability was now shown to be compaable to the silver surfers. It is also imperative that we remember that the silver surfer has taken BB whisper before without getting koed. Another example is in the case of the sentry, In the past also the void was able to break all the hulks bones. Howver the hulk showed a great increase in durability during WWH as the sentry who is .void actually exhausted his enrgy reserves without actually koing the hulk. The last example of durability that points to him being able to take ythe whisper is the zom strange incident. Although i certainly dont consider hulk the winner of the fight and also dont believe he could evn win the fight, it is still example of great durability. Dr strange is IMO tied with Silver surfer as being the most powerful top tier.
Using his vast amount of powers he certainly should have taken out the hulk and him having to channel zom in the first place was PIS. Howver the hulk showed impressive durability during the zom strange fight.
Now although we really cant determine EXACTLY how powerful zom strange was, it quite simple to produce a range. Personally i seriously doubt that strange would channel an entity less powerful than him. However the zom entity being more powerful than strange is certified with stranges in ability to control the great amount of power. He certainly would not have had such problems doing so if the entity was less powerful. Further from the severe warnings strange received before channeling the power we can infer that the being was quite a bit more powerful than him. Obviously such a being is certainly above hulk and should be able to defeat him. Zom strange not defeating hulk is certainly PIS but hulks ability to take multiple blasts and hits from him and still keep fighting is not. What is PIS about this fight is strange suddenly begiining to struggle to control the power and thus giving the hulk the opportunity to attack. Also another aspect which is PIS is stranges focus on physically koing the hulk when there are a many other things he could have done. Howver the hulk taking multiple attacks from an amped up stranhge is certainly impressive and shows that his durability is certainly enough to take BBs voice.
I have seen an argument however that talks about BBs voice operating on the molecular level. Evn so the great durability of WWH would certainly play a part in determining his resitance to molecular tampering. This was shown in his fight against the vector who could repel matter and was actually able repel reality. The hulk howwver was able to survive this attack without being koed ( most of his flesh had been flayed off though just like in WWH) and WWH is considerably more powerful and more than that version of hulk. Regardless of its mode of operation the the hulk has the feats to prove that he can take it.
In regards to the rest of the people on the list
1. Sentry; Contrary to what some would beleive there was really no PIS
in this fight at all. Ive heard arguments that sentry did not use his speed but i will explain the major fault in this argument. The problem with such an argument is the fact that the sentry really does not have examples
showing his battle speed which is what would be needed for such a fight. He has shown great flight speed but battle speed wise he is lacking seriously. Therefore hitting the hulk a million times in a second or what not was never actually on th cards. Also considering that the sentry who is known mainly for his large enrgy output was constanly using enrgy attacks against the hulk, it cannot be said that he was not doing his best as he admitted he was going all out and this was proved when his enrgy ran out. With that being said id call an evn split with maybe a slight edge to hulk in a forum fight.
2.FF/prep; This is the fight the varies the most as it depends on the kind of equipment obtained by the FF during their prep time. Knowing the ability of reed, i dont doubt that with prep he could take out the hulk. Howwver going by the prepearations actually made in the comic its hulk for the win .
3.Xavier and jugs; WWHs mental resistance would help him alot against xavier and his cunning and superior intelligence make him BFR jugs.
4. Iron man; No explanation needed hulk wins all day.
