Its all in the wording , physical might = strength. In power generation (energy) I would give it to Marvel who does seem to generate a lot of energy. In potential for destruction I would give it to Wanda if we are measuring. Lack of control and tied to her emotions but capable of so much reality damage. But physicality it would be Hulk as again the wording, physical might aka strength. Different types of power and all that.
Sure, that term works too. I'll wait for 1-2 days if anybody else wants to chime in before putting anything up.

From World's Strongest Man; "Note that this trope refers to a character type," so I'd say that none of them fit because none of them are a reference to the archetype.
Link to TRS threads in project mode here.
So...using another trope to indicate that Hulk is physically the strongest Avenger would be the best way to go then?
Maybe we should just axe the entire entry then and just expand /rewrite the Super-Strength entry.

Should Professor Hulk get his own section?

I say he should, since he has some unique tropes about him and his tropes will otherwise be split between Bruce's and Hulk's sections.
I say we should just merge both existing sections as the two characters were one all along, just different aspects of personality (and played by the same actor for a reason) . It is less convenient to add tropes to three different sections, especially if the character will make another appearance, say, in Thor 4.

I actually also think he should get his own section, he's different enough from both Hulk and Banner.
Coming here after this Ask The Tropers query
. So regarding garlington41
removing the bit about Carol and Wanda from the World's Strongest Man entry, I certainly see now that the entry was a bit short, and I guess you can differentiate between pure physical strength and overall power a bit more, but the whole "Carol only overpowered Thanos because she absorbed the Gauntlets power" is pure speculation and fan fic, and Word of God in fact did call her the new Top Dog of the MCU, in fact that is what this whole big controversy was about regarding her (among other things).
Anyways, my first idea for a rewrite would be
- As of Endgame, while Hulk is still a big contender in pure physical might, both Wanda Maximoff and Carol Danvers have him outclassed in the overall power department, as evidence by their respective fights against Thanos (which went much better than Hulk's fight with him in Infinity War). Carol in particular takes the Mad Titan head on and physically stops him from closing his palm, not even budging when he headbutts her, which forces him to use the Power Stone to overpower her.
