Why is Hulk so underpowered in the MCU?
The Edward Norton stand alone movie is the last time I remember seeing him win in a 1v1 against Abomination. Thor beat I’m him in Ragnarok (before the Grandmaster cheated). Just seems like the MCU made him beatable so that there was always the possibility that the Avengers could be beat in the movies.
I perceived the Hulk to be similar to the Saiyans from Dragonball Z. Where a loss enables them to become stronger. I guess it’s the same as us normal humans where we learn from failure.
