Shaw's abilities in comics won't absorb a light saber just like that, I'm not familiar with the movvie version, but bullets are entirely different than plasma when it comes to his powerset.

Bullets still contain energy, meaning they'd just become inert if Shaw absorbed them. Plus he was fired upon from many angles at once by assault rifles, meaning either supersonic+ reactions or automatic defenses. Make of that what you will
So yeah, he could absorb the energy from Spiderpool's physical attacks even. And I see nothing suggesting Spiderman or Deadpool's attacks could push Shaw beyond his limits

He absorbed several sources of energy in the movie that would allow him to absorb a saber's energy. And the comic version now can absorb more than simply kinetic energy. They made a big deal about it in Avengers Academy.
Didn't read that, but if that's true I stand corrected.

Sure, he should tank Spiderpool's physical attacks, my argument is that the lightsabers would still hurt Shawvious.

He's absorbed grenades going off in his face (might be a reaction/movement speed dependent on how you interpret it), so maybe I suppose
Explosive force is something that classic Shaw would counter without being able to counter exotic energies. Just throwing that out there for what it's worth.
