Sentry's arrival. Classic
But you see hulk still was saying sentry to stay away from the fight when sentry punched him through so many buildings. This is opposite to what hulk would have done in normal circumstances. If any other hero attacked him, he would pulverise him, but he gave sentry a warning, which was unusual on hulk's part, which shows how good friends hulk and sentry are.
Now another thing to notice is wwh actually did not undergo any strength increase during his fight with sentry as his calming aura prevented hulk from doing it. Plus wwh held back and after the fight was over he became hulk and turned wbh, showing he had quite a lot of strength and power left, and if he wanted to would have killed sentry easily.
But base hulk is a different story.Remember this Hulk facing sentry the first time
This line is important "You wanted to be angry. but you couldn't remember how." Becoming angry was never a difficult task for him but in sentry's presence, he couldn't become angry. This is precisely what I think would happen, either hulk reverts to banner or hulk might fight sentry but his strength won't increase while fighting sentry because of that calming effect. I agree hulk has better feats than sentry while sentry has more better wins against opponents like galactus (was a stalemate but still very impressive) and defeating molecule man (yeah it was stable sentry and was PIS but still wwh also defeated stable sentry as sentry stated he was going all out on hulk). I see you and @Tyrannus voted for hulk, but I don't think hulk would be even able to land a hit on sentry, but wwh would completely destroy him.
Hulk Hulk chose to hold back and convinced Sentry to also hold back in their fight during WWH.
Now I agree Sentry might win but if he's going for the kill then he most certainly will not.
Sentry@Tyrannus I think sentry was pretty much stable the whole fight. He stood in his doorway for 29 hours and was going all out, but hulk somewhat convinced him in the end but I think sentry's mind can still be messed up even if he is stable (I know it wasn't the stable sentry who defeated MM but he looked stable pretty much whole fight).
Hulk When he was at the doorway the president described how he was paralysed by his agoraphobia.
Sentry gave it his all but in the end Hulk had more to give.
Sentry Sentry was worried to use all his power. Then Iron man told him to play god.Sentry then went full out on hulk, with thing and iron man also confirming it.. Plus wwh didn't undergo any strength increase in the entire fight because of sentry's aura. As @Tyrannus said hulk had a lot more to give, while sentry collapsed. Some people say sentry got defeated because of hulk's words, that's false. If that was to be true, robert should not have collapsed in the end, rather he should have converted to his human form like bruce and should not have collapsed . If he didn't collapse and stood on his feet like bruce, then that point would have been true. Sentry was exhausted and injured and so lost the fight, not because of hulk's words.
Hulk Also here's the thing: Hulk's stronger forms, such as WB, could be obtained in any fight given enough time.
Other heroes typically can't rely on this.
Hulk Hulk was too angered by WWH storyline so Sentry's calming aura wasn't working. If Hulk wants to win he probably will. Meanwhile Sentry can't make himself stable on command.
Hulk But since Sentry was going nuts his aura wasn't working well. Also Hulk can't become WWH, as that requires training and mental conditioning. WBH is a different story however.
Sentry@Jongensoden is right like he always is, in Sentry/Hulk Bob calms down Hulk and reverts him back to Bruce Banner while staying in his superform. Also Sentry was weakened due to his own instability during that fight in World War Hulk #5 meaning he wasn't at full power either and still fought on par with the Hulk and both calmed and tiered him out until he reverted back into his human form, Sentry (even in his unstable state) should be able to calm base Hulk down a lot easier since he isn't nearly as angry as World War Hulk who was stated to be the angriest Hulk we've seen up until that point in World War Hulk #4 without reverting back to his base form.
Sentry And I never said it wasn't part of who he was I was just bringing context into the equation to explain how Sentry could have done better against World War Hulk (a much angrier Hulk).
Hulk Sentry still loses. WWH's faster reflexes and training wouldn't have made much of difference so base Hulk still smacks Sentry. And try not to get so offended
Sentry Yeah but that was World War Hulk a more powerful form of Hulk who is almost never that angry _World War Hulk #4. I'll also like to give you this https://imgur.com/a/KUsy2
Except remember what happened during the events of WWH?
Although he became more angry when he discovered it was a clone.
