I'll be a bit lazy here and copy a bio from the wiki but if you've seen the movie I'm sure you already know it.
Arthur Curry was born between 1985-1986, though ARGUS lists his birthdate as January 29, 1979,[2] to Thomas Curry, a lighthouse keeper in Amnesty Bay, and Atlanna, the queen of Atlantis. When Arthur was still a child, their home was attacked by royal guards sent to bring Atlanna back so that she could marry King Orvax. While Atlanna managed to fight them off she realized she had to return to her home and leave him and his father in order to keep them both safe. Before she left, she imparted Arthur her quindent as her legacy, believing him to be the key to uniting the Atlanteans and humans one day.[1]
Due to his half-Atlantean high-born heritage, Aquaman has incredible superhuman abilities, that surpass most other Atlanteans, deemed as the most developed traits of all Atlanteans, with only other high-born Atlanteans equaling his genetic attributes.
Here are the powers/abilities which will be most effective in this battle.
Just his new pitchfork and armor
Arthur has lifted a submarine (which weigh in tens of thousands of tons) with no issue at all as hes pictured with a smug smile on his face when he gets on the ship. More in the lifting/brute department he clowns 5 Royal Atlantean Guards and shoves a large piece of rock off him with one arm casually. Striking wise hes no slouch either, here he rocks Steppenwolf with a punch and a trident smack and knocks away a giant bell with an elbow slam.
The takeaway from this - From these feats I believe that Arthur is indeed stronger lifting wise as Hulk does not have anything on the level as the submarine feat and can stagger him with his punches but Hulk solidly strikes harder than him.
Most of Arthurs most impressive durability feats are blunt force. Hes tanked multiple hits from Karathen with no armor, an absolutely humongous seamonster. Not only did Karathen crush through the deep seabed with ease but she also was one shotting large Atlantean warships. Hes also been bullrushed by Steppenwolf and smashed into a giant pillar, which shattered and tanked a hit from his electro Axe. He appeared to be fine after an enraged Superman punched him moments later. His pain tolerance was also impressive as he was stabbed twice by Manta with Atlantean blades and still was able to fight through until the very end and defeat him. Energy wise I will admit is not really that impressive but he has taken Mantas blast which destroyed a large part of a cliff.
The takeaway from this - Arthur is more than capable of tanking some hits from Hulk.
I will admit Arthur is very limited in this section but he still has some very interesting showings. Here hes able to react to a plasma blast after its fired. With his trident he deflects some more in the final battle. In the JL final battle in Russia he was fighting perfectly fine with Steppenwolf (who has more impressive reaction feats than hulk and fought Diana just fine).
The takeaway from this - With some basic scaling, Arthur is faster in combat.
With his trident Arthur can set up a water shield which Orm couldnt do anything about. Orm also broke Atlannas trident and hers couldnt get past Vulkos WS. Atlannas trident was able to pierce Steppenwolfs armors (which was no selling WWs sword). His new Tridents best feat is chopping up Orms trident and we know that Atlans trident is the best and the with the scaling earlier... yeah you get the point he'd be able to pierce Hulk just fine.
The takeaway from this - Arthur can set up a protective shield which can send Hulk flying back and leave Hulk in a vulnerable position. We also can takeway that Arthurs trident has the feats to suggest that it will clean through Hulks skin with no issue.
Being trained by Vulko his whole life, Arthur is a very skilled Atlantean. Here he stomps 3 Red Suite Atlanteans all armed with swords at the same time and was unarmed when the other two arrive. On land he beats Orm in the final fight and with some basic scaling, fights Steppewolf well (who overwhelmed WW).
The takeaway from this - Arthur is much much more skilled (I'll go over this more later).
Heres a battle Hulk has been in very recently which I really want to pay attention to. Hulk vs Thor. I problem which I want to nail down on is how Hulk struggles tag Thor when he just gets that little more serious (he was holding back a lot) It wasnt as bad as the start though. Arthur is going to see a green mindless beast and go for the kill straight away. Arthur is definitely "at least" on Thors level of combat speed with the feats/scaling I explained above in the speed section and is very skilled as well. So he wont have a problem replicating the same with his speed,skill and size, may take a hit or two but hes still more than durable enough to take them as I've explained above as well. The same exact thing happened to him when he faced Thanos and couldnt touch him because of skill. That and Arthur has a two-three shot weapon with him.
In another scenario, with the fountain nearby Arthur can put up his water shield if things get a bit too hectic.
He wins and after all of that he gets drunk as helllllllllll
