Archangel hasn't been doing to well in direct confrontations...Fantomex beat on him but had no way to really kill him. Psylocke could've killed him but decided against it. Wolverine almost gutted Warren but was fooled and blasted. In the preview for the next issue Fantomex is beating on Archangel again.
As is relevant to the fight, any of those three would likely beat on Midnighter too.
Yeah, we avoid ABC logic and all, and I haven't seen what went down between Fantomex and Archangel, but I can believe that F's misdirection could lead Warren into danger. And saying that, say, Betsy could have killed Warren isn't actually saying a lot, because she's clearly on another level from anybody competing in this match, so...
warren also has the celestial death seed which isn't contunity because he feared the celestials arriving saying that is being 'guided' by the golden celestial
Warren has pretty much lost every direct hand-to-hand match up except against sabretooth, CIS prevented characters from kill him. He really hasn't been impressive at all. Fantomex didn't even use his misdirection.
the common denominator being that archangel is naturally above them huh?
you can say it
--------------------
he got a lot more powerful as the arc progressed, so signs of "weakness" an issue ago were pretty much off the table the issue hence, for example any time wolverine looked like he had a chance were trashed when he stabbed archangel and owned himself in the process in the last issue

he only had one weakness so his fighting prowess was irrelevant, but as you can see he still got the job done. his power makes up for the limited skill basically
