It's not a low showing mate, yes they do. Mantis has done it to other characters so there is not shame in it, just a lot of people don't like it. Karate Kid and Gamora have done it to high tier characters as well of a similar caliber to Thor.
Regardless what you think of that, the point is can pressure points work on MCU thor who is far below 616, the answer is yes they can.
It is a low showming man, otherwise Daredevil and Iron Fist and pretty much every street leveler woud beat Thor.
They probably would work on MCU Thor

I don't see how it would be a low showing. I assume the people he fights just neglect the pressure point option (more likely the writer does), or they just aren't strong enough to use one. Man-Beast knowing all those styles is good but unless he has skill feats he's not on par with established street levelers. Knowledge isn't everything, or even a lot.
Like I said above, if Thor was in fact susceptible to pressure points, every street leveler would beat him, which isn´t the case, I donm´t know if you had read the issue but here is the scan so you can judge it for yourself. Man-Beast had millions of years of knowledge, that´s better than Mantis and every single street leveler.
As seen in The Mighty Thor #135, pressure points don´t do much to Thor, he was attacked by Man-Beast, a being created by High Evolutionary, a being a million years more advanced who had all the knowledge of every single form of combat that has and will be created, he tried to use a pressure point on Thor and it was useless, take a look for yourself.
