Needless to say, Thor is going to freakin' wreck people. I'd say the lasso at #5 is probably the best shot anyone has of subduing him quickly, short of overpowering him (Thanos + Odin). Outside of that - and I think it would be dicey myself - he gets to Thanos.
Is this Blood and Thunder Thor, or legit Warrior Madness Thor? If it's the latter than anyone, yes even Thanos, who even gets anywhere near Thor's hands, or tries to engage him in a brawl or fight, gets utterly decimated and wrecked. Except Odin himself.

There is no way on god's green Earth that Thanos is overpowering Thor, at all or even coming close here Jake. Not in the opinion of anyone whose ever read Thor's encounters with him (Assuming it's the true Warrior Madness incident.).
Thor stalemated him briefly in their earlier encounter. Even Masterson Thor has downed Thanos with a single hammer throw, was forcing him back with his punches, beaten him down to his knees and had him at his mercy.
Even in the Power Gem instance in Blood and Thunder, it was clearly stated that Thor would give Thanos a good fight, any other day or something along those lines.
Thanos is maybe 50% stronger than Thor. No more. I never understood why people have this notion that Thanos has owned Thor in their encounters physically. Never understood it at all. That's the Hulk and Drax.
The one instance might be the dog piling incident, and if I'm thinking of the correct one, Thor might have just been standing there in that one.
Unless Superman is not in his normal mindset, chances are he first tries and slug it out. Biggest mistake off his life.
In the 4th fight, he is more than likely to use it as it is a second fight. But to what end? With Thor's reaction times, and omni directional attacks which he is more likely to use instead of simply direct energy blasts in this mindset in my opinion makes it useless.
Yea, Thor was in true Warrior Madness during that fight after the big reveal. He beat the utter shit out of him and had won in the fist fight after like 3 punches only but yea, it took way too long to put him down. Even a page or two is too long.
I don't think he has any showings of strength besides his original fight with Thor. It's been a long time since I've read those books and correct me if I'm wrong but wasn't HIM revamped into Adam Warlock in Marvel's Premiere #1 right after his fight with Thor?
One major thing to take into account was back then, Warrior Madness was simply Thor going berserk as I understood it at least. It wasn't until Thor #502 in 1996 where the Berserker's Rage (It was referred to as that and not the Warrior's Madness.) was actually stated to amp Thor's strength nearly that much. I don't recall any other instance other than Bill's Thor draws strength from the Madness statement to indicate any amp at all.
Even in Blood and Thunder, when Sif thought Thor was under Warrior Madness, she specifically told Zeus, it was a malady of the mind.
This also justifies why Thor has stated things such as Zeus went into a Berserker's Rage when he attacked the Avenger's. The arc Zeus was crazy with blood lust and revenge for what he thought was the beating of Hercules as a result of the Avengers.
In their first fight, it isn't really fair to Thor to state that he was amped 10x as it wasn't until much later on that it was even suggested that Warrior Madness gave any sort of amp and it wasn't until years after that it stated that there was a 10x increase (Unless I've not come across or forgotten an instance.).
You could choose to ignore it, but that's something I believe is a big factor to consider.
