Yeah, writers have different definitions of "pinnacle of human perfection". Some think that "what a man can do, Captain America will do!" (then have him effortlessly tossing a tree with one hand...) and others believe he is outright superhuman. Brubaker for example thinks of Cap as the next step of human evolution.He has some feats suggesting that he's higher. But yeah, putting him in that range seems right. I'd say Weapon X Sabes was somewhere between 15-20 tons, but that's just my opinion. Hard to measure his strength when we don't have enough lifting feats for every incarnation and official stats.
If you call resurrection an upgrade... well actually you'd be right, he no longer possessed a heartbeat and got a healing factor it seems. But why then would the writer give us an accurate number in his first appearance? Just to fool us? He had superhuman strength in his origin story and none of his feats went beyond Class 2 imo.
Yeah, so, back to the original point, as strong as a couple of them are, they aren't on par with Hulk in any form of power. Hulk has higher durability, faster HF, and WWHulk in particular had some skills in agility, Hulk is quick enough to catch Spider-Man, so these guys are not much of a challenge to get a hold of, and it goes without saying that Hulk is stronger.
Now, I don't like to pick at little things like Wolverine not getting along with Sabretooth. So, assuming the Team are working together at optimum efficiency and cooperation, and individually are having good days and at their best, we can draw up some scenarios.
The worst threat is Gorgon, on account of his adamantium katana. The katana would be long enough to cut through Hulk's neck. The rest pose a relatively lesser threat. Wolverine and Sabretooth could only pull off relatively minor damage, which WWHulk heals from efficiently and quickly.
And Omega Red, despite being the (overall)most powerful of the Team, is probably the least threat. Don't facepalm just yet! Hear me out. I doubt his powers would hurt Hulk. How many absorbing foes has Hulk overcharged? Sometimes deliberately. I think WWHulk, as soon as he figures out Omega Red's powers, would pull that off. Can Omega Red be overcharged? I don't know. But Hulk has overcharged a lot of guys. If not, Omega Red still has to be in attack range to do his thing.
WWHulk already proved that Wolverine is not a big problem.
Sabretooth is a good physical opponent to guys in his range, but I just can't see him lasting long against Hulk. Sabes just has to get too close to attack. Hulk one-shots him as soon as he's in range.
Gorgon is another matter. He moves faster than even Wolverine can follow, and his agility is nuts. He almost moves like a vampire or something. And it seems to me that the best way for a non-top-tier to fight Hulk is to simply be faster than him. Gorgon actually killed Wolverine, and Wolverine has beaten the Hell out of Spider-Man before. Gorgon, in my opinion, lasts the longest and does the most damage... but we're still talking about WWHulk. I think he'd have the smarts and presence of mind to know when someone's going for a decap shot, and the skill to avoid it or even use it against them. Hulk's reaction speed, after all, has allowed him to even punch tank-fired shells. So that's not only reaction time, but reflex and physical gesture speed.
