MCU Thor vs The Thing

[The Arbiter]

616 Ben Grimm. This is Thor with his hammer, before it broke.

Standard arena, except there are some trees and boulders dotted around. Cause y'know... sand is boring.

The ever loving blue eyed Thing kicks some serious asgardian ass. Only iffyness is I can't think of an example of how Ben has done with lightning before but that's Thor's only shot as he gets manhandled worse than against Kurse in CQC.

Yeah, I dunno about all of that. This seems like it would go down like the Surtur fight in the beginning of Ragnarok. Thor is just too quick for Ben, and can just yoyo the hammer off of Ben until he drops. There is no reason for him to let this turn into wrestling (even though, to be extremely fair, Thor does just that TWICE against Hulk: in Avengers and in Ragnarok, both times sacrificing his significant speed and skill edge to enter into a clumsy grapple against a larger, stronger foe - writing can be really annoying sometimes).

Yeah, if Ben gets his hands on Thor then Thor is done. Ben is much stronger than him.

Heck, I'm kind of dubious if MCU Thor - prior to his thunder god upgrade - can actually hurt Thing.

I mean, he's fast enough to play keepaway for a while but Thing can thunderclap or use his, mostly completely forgetten, superbreath to offset that.

And that's certainly a fair take as well. I guess it comes down to whether Thor's bouncing Mjolnir off Ben repeatedly (or other ranged stuff) can eventually wear Ben down. I don't know that Ben's thunderclap is going to bring Thor down or do anything significant to him, and knocking Thor AWAY is the LAST thing Ben wants if he's going to win the fight. Thor is definitely a better fighter and quicker, so he can certainly play keepaway for as long as he needs to. Thor also doesn't really seem to get particularly tired, even during protracted engagements, though to be fair, none of those ever seem to go on for more than 10 or 15 minutes in the films - the nature of the medium, really. He can also just unload with a massive stream of energy (à la AoU against Ultron) and keep it on Ben relatively indefinitely.

Honestly I think Ben has better durability feats then MCU Mjolnir. Dude could basically walk through anything the MCU Avengers have had to deal with.
