Maxima fits in well with past wielders of Mjolnir. If Cap is worthy then certaintly Maxima is.
Lol? Not sure if serious.
Captain America embodies all that is good that is only matched by someone like Superman, but more warrior like which is why he's probably worth of Mjolnir unlike Superman all the time.
Maxima is no Wonder Woman.

Maxima seems to fit the Norse warrior ethos just fine.
Thor doesn't have telepathic defenses in the classical sense, a powerful telepath has an extremely good shoot of seizing his mind if they have the jump. But piss him off, or get into a contest of wills? It's a whole different kind of animal. More powerful telepaths than Maxima have failed in that endeavor.

She doesn't need to be worthy, she can move fast enough to grab his wrist and make him beat himself with his own hammer. It's a proven tactic against Thor.

He has been controlled by Moon dragon though, iirc.
Yea, that settles that. It's not like Thor also has a very positive track record against mental intrusions, specifically one's he's prepared for. I could just point to Phoenix Emma Frost and Rachel Grey recently proving ineffective against Thor telepathically. And those were in combat, not like your example.
How is Maxima going to win?

Thor is hit and miss against mental powers. There are examples of it working and not working (depending on skill and power of the telepath). Rachel Summers or Emma Frost are no Maxima. Not by a long shot.
I didn't say his entire history was spotless, but he has a very solid record against direct assaults, particularly when its an upfront contest of wills.
Can Maxima shut down his mind? Possible yes. Can Thor resist? Unless it's a surprise assault, also very possible.
I doubt Maxima is superior to Phoenix Emma Frost, but I don't know much about Rachel outside of her Phoenix years.

By beating the phuck out of him?
Lol, okay then.

Maxima owning Orion is dangerous...Thor still wins. She will be gasping and drooling all over Thor's muscles to put up a fight.
Yea, she did incapacitate him with intense psychic pain but that's the exact kind of shit I would advise against. Unlike Orion for some reason, Thor can resist a psychic assault and has.

If her TP don't work, then reverse this. Thor for the slight majority (she's no slouch physical stat wise, but she's no Thor).

I'm not entirely disagreeing with you, I'm just saying Maxima is an Xavier level telepath and she could shut down his mind if she so chose. But she'd probably get stupid and try brawling. That's why I gave her only a slight edge win wise.If her TP don't work, then reverse this. Thor for the slight majority (she's no slouch physical stat wise, but she's no Thor).
Xavier level telepath? I'm not sure of that tbh.
Fair enough I guess. Thor doesn't have formal psychic defenses but his mental will power is immense. His best mental defensive feats are from Blood and Thunder probably, and shit on Maxima's best from what I've seen.
she is certainly NOT xavier level, that i can tell you confidently..... she could certainly win some, but i don't really see her taking mental control. i could see her tp hindering him, f'ing him up, allowing her to use her own speed and strength (almost his level) to ko him, but i'd still take thor for a decent majority given his total history.
