I'm thinking that the worm was a plot device, and I don't see Thor having a problem with it either to be honest. Not after all of the mythical beasts that he's put down. However he was not capable of mounting much of an offense, or defense against the Sentry.

But is it enuff to warrant a win over OWAW Supes?
I would need to see more. I see Clark continuously pound the shiet out of him for a forum win.

The OP never said anything about Our World's at War Superman, and if it did, this would be a duplicate thread. However Superman does not possess the tools to defeat this version of the Sentry. He would simply reform on the spot, and mount another attack until... my guess would be to kill Superman. He seems to have the tools to hurt Superman, but I'm not sure if Superman can do the same.

Can't he just knock out the sentry without killing him?

mmm
By knocking him out.
Comics don't work on that brand of logic.
A perfect case in point is the famous villain Doomsday, who was not only able to literally handle dying from getting beaten to death
but came back physically stronger than he had been before.
He got knocked out by Superman in a rematch.
This no-limits fallacy argument when it comes to Dentry is stupid. To date, Dentry hasn't battled a character even remotely close to sun-dipped/OWAW Superman's level. Assuming Supes would be unable to KO Dentry simply because far weaker characters than him haven't been able to, is also stupid.
Also, space-worm...

Doomsday and Sentry aren't remotely the same character, they neither have the same powers or operate on the same levels. We saw the Sentry get his head split open and he was not harmed. How do you knock someone out that can take that kind of abuse? Superman does not have the tools to deal with this guy.

You don't have to have a no limits fallacy placed upon a character to not be affected with Superman's brand of offensive abilities. He simply would not have the necessary tools as I said before to KO, or stop the Sentry. This is not to say that someone of lesser power could not defeat him. Superman however operates on the physical level, and Sentry appeared to be beyond that. The worm was obviously a plot device which helped to save our favorite hero's from their untimely demise. If not then the Worm could have been more powerful than we may know. It would have certainly killed Thor... I mean if you really want to go that route. Let's just keep it at plot device worm that swallowed Sentry until the writers know what to do next.

Heat Vision? Are you certain that this would work on him? If so why didn't Thor unleash a lightning barrage upon him? Lightning as we all know is very hot. Mystical lightning may be even hotter.
Also remember Thor incinerated Voidtry in Siege? He did reform eventually(many times), but was constantly vaporized within the sun. I dont see why Supers would not mix his attacks with hv and get a forum win.. Imo.

But this is a whole new Sentry, all we know is that it does not take remotely the amount of time that it used to take for him to reform. Look at how having his head split open had no effect on him. He went as far as to rip his own skull apart, and this had no effect on him. Superman may just be a bad fight for a guy of this power set. Again I am not making a claim that Sentry is more powerful than OWAW Superman was, but more to the tune of OWAW Superman may not be able to hit him or score on him. I don't see Superman being able to do the same however.
