Nefaria even when his powers seemed to be dwindling(in fact according to the Handbooks they were) backhanded Thor like an inferior, and caught a charged Mjolnir strike.By the way, Thor is equally as skilled as Hercules according to the Handbooks and had Mjolnir yet that wasn't enough.

Count Nefaria did use his speed, he used all of his abilities as speed became an innate part of who he had become. We are not talking about Ultr-Boy here. Count Nefaria didn’t have the power to turn off an individual power. Every power that he has was on all of the time. Count Nefaria used speed to stop Thor’s downward swing from further harming him.
Thor was able to hurt Count Nefaria with a punch. Count Nefaria in this case would no longer have the luxury of quickly moving out of dangerous position before being stunned further.
Count Nefaria has never been trained, and has no idea how defend against a seasoned boxer, and wrestler who placed first in the Olympic Games games, and who also uses dirty fighting to exploit opponents. Canon skills for Hercules, and displayed on panel.
Thor is equally skilled as Hercules in H2H, however Hercules edged him out and defeated him in H2H combat without weapons. It even states that Hercules is slightly better, and slightly stronger than Thor. Read Thor Blood Oath 3-4.
Count Nefaria has a strength advantage here, and that is all.This advantage is not great enough to negate Herc’s ability to hurt Count Nefaria.
This is the reason that I posted the scan showing that Thor was able to hurt Nefaria. With no skill to cite in his entire history, Count Nefaria would be what is called Chipped Up. Little by little Hercules would beat the shit out of him. This is based upon his inability to fight at that level while being brought down to Hercules level speed.
