I don't know why some of you are going on about being right and winning. Rob and Impediment were in on this gag because I PMed them. Silent and Rao PMed me and figured I changed the post. I highly doubt anybody thought Quan made the post, but simply played along just for the lulz.

Wonder Man went toe to toe with Count Nefaria who was strong enough to take on the Avengers solo. He also had no problem with Thor who is a great h2h combatant.
You restricted it to the 80's so I'm not sure but there is a fight where Thor is pushed to the limit by Simon and has to charge Mjolnir up to capacity for a final strike.
Simon is stronger and more durable and would win in the absence of Stormbreaker.

I have that Byrne issue but later on in his own series Simon goes toe to toe with the Hulk and basically draws. He did well against the Abomination too.
Ben has gone multiple rounds with The Champion, has beaten HULK a handful of times, beat Namor, Bi-Beast, Wonderman, The Wrecker, Sasquatch, stalemated Hercules, Colossolnaut etc...
But, he's going to get 2 shot by a non hammer wielding BRB?
Thor's one-shotted Namor no problem, big deal, who hasn't.
Wonder Man could barely lift the weights Thor use for working out and the only incident where he actually came close to matching Thor was a PIS-ridden shit-storm, where he STILL LOST.
And even if, by some miracle, he could actually match Thor's strength, he still wouldn't COME CLOSE to matching Beta Ray Bill's durability.
Thor didn't oneshot namor, he knocked namor down who got up fine on the next page and that was a weakening namor which both namor and thor noted. Namor also sent BRB on his ass with a similar punch for nearly the same amount of time in Thor Corps and that was a younger, weaker namor. FWIW simon didn't oneshot namor too, it was a suckershot.
That was a weaker simon, later he was stalemating merged hulk in a slugfest just fine.
Actually the peak wonder man was a bit better than thor in terms of cutting durability. BRB wouldn't be better than him in blunt force durability by much.

Your opinion of the aforementioned events doesn't negate their being canon. Your previous statement implied I was mistaken about what I was citing in reference to Wonder Man.
Namor was as much out as he was against Wonder Man, and that's all I needed. My point was that it was no great feat.
Wonder Man never fought the Hulk over time.
And it's a good thing this is a fistfight and not a knife-fight then!
And BRB is better than him when it comes to blunt force durability. So yeah....there's that. Bill has just taken so much more punishment than Wonder Man.
