    C'mon. Just the fun nature of Michael Westen vs. Carl Winslow needs an argument. If not for the result, for the love of the game. Plus, I need you to argue so we can see what kind of completely odd tangent you can suck Wocky into this time.

    This is very similar to being a disgraced LA cop, who had to move to Chicago for being involved in both a shooting of a child (back when that sort of thing was frowned upon, like it is clearly not now) and being burned by destroying a major piece of property in one of the first terrorist attacks on US soil. Having to give up a Twinkie habit in order to move back to donuts, in order to blend in with the new department, he ended up dealing with his mom, a crazy/same-jobbed wife, and a colorfully-dressed side-kick.

    Michael Alan Westen == MAW
    Carl Otis Winslow == COW

    Clearly, the meat-eater -- with the scary mouth sounding name -- is going to be better than the ruminant who is only scary to grass.

    Similar, but not the same.

    QED.

    Vote Westen 2017.

    Only if you consider, agility wise, how Xenomorph stacks up against a chimpanzee.

    Lucy (Lucy) (Prepared) vs. Azazel (X: Men First Class)
    So this is cool. Azazel is cool. Much like a jumper, he can grab a character and jump them high up and leave them to drop. That's cool. I would just like to point the judges in the direction of the opening moments in this clip, in particular:

    She shoots those guys before she even sees them. She knows they're there. Her aim is perfect. Ignore all of the other things she can do--the telekinesis, the telepathy, etc.--she can feel where he is. Where he's going to be. One person is ready for the other here. She's ready for him. Unsuspecting characters might get unlucky against him, but this is clear cut.

    T1000 (Terminator 2) vs. Pinhead (Hellraiser)
    Interesting. If we are judging characters, Pinhead has no reason to even fight this. He's a sadomasochist who wants to torture people for their souls. He gets none of those things out of this. But I digress, because they're fighting. I just think it's funny.

    Anyway. The chains? Kind of useless, right? I mean they rend flesh, that's great, and I've seen them breaking through stone, but is there even any guarantee that they can pierce metal? Even if they can puncture it, does that matter? They'll slide right through the T1000 like it slides through bars, bullets, etc. What can be done with those?

    As far as Pinhead's durability, he did no-sell some plasma shots, that's a thing. Although how powerful those are who knows. Cenobites can definitely be hurt, though. In the one where Pinhead turns on Leviathan (his boss), his hooks can be seen penetrating the guy as easily as they do human flesh. Leviathan even cries out in pain (which he probably likes). Can a T1000, a model capable of pinning a T800 to the wall with a spear made from its own body, pierce a Cenobite? I think so. It nonchalantly puts a finger through the back of a person's skull, at one point. Multiple times sticking things through the T800.

    There's some fancy stuff Pinhead does in Hellraiser 3, but that's an abnormal peak. The fandom recognizes it as out of the ordinary. But if you want to use that, go ahead I guess.

    Captain America (Marvel Cinematic Universe) vs. Xenomorph (Alien)
    The xenomorph is tough, it is fast, it is strong. But does it do any of those things better than Cap?

    We've seen Captain America put his shield through Ultron Prime, a body that was tanking a .50 cal.
    We've seen Cap tank almost any kind of damage you can think of.
    We've seen him do this:

    Well, no, I guess technically we haven't seen him do that. But.

    Bourne can tell Luke that there's a sale on power converters going on down the street, and then, I dunno, shoot him in the back or something?

    If heels really needs arguments on Superman vs. Blade -- remember that Superman is infinitely more familiar with an office environment, after years of mild-mannered reporting at the Daily Planet.

    Terrain knowledge.

    Apologies, things have gotten really busy for me. If given another 24 hours, I'd be happy to lay out why Superman must lose, and that Burn Notice guy wouldn't stand much chance either.

    Those were only the early seasons. Once he and the CIA make nice, he goes all over the world.
