...You know I’ve been using this quote from the conference in China for months now, right? I’m pretty sure everyone knew this.
And no, it doesn’t confirm Hulk > EG Thor. Hulk even says in the movie he’s the most likely to survive because he’s the most resistant to gamma radiation. That’s it.
While I’m here, just wanted to say you might want to change around your Thanos respect thread. He never “easily” overpowered EG Thor. Every pure strength struggle they had, including the one you posted in that thread, had Thanos clearly struggling to push it downwards, and that’s when he had the leverage advantage.
Russo simply says ''only Hulk is strong enough to do it'', again ; ''strong enough'' if it was related to gamma rays only then he would say that Hulk had a special immunity to that power, it's related to the power that Hulk has.
He even says Captain marvel may not do it, and we know Carol has gained her powers from Tessseract, if someone needs to be more durable to the infinity stones that must be Carol, but they don't know if she could do it.
Thanos one-shotted EG Thor with a headbutt when he used mjolnir's magical weight to pull Thanos's strength, and before that Thanos only hit EG Thor 4 times before Cap saved him with mjolnir. As far as I see that's easily. People say Thanos stomped Hulk, while Hulk even overpowered Thanos at the beginning and took 12 hits, EG Thor was even weaker than that, of course he easily overpowered EG Thor.

The only thing confirmed atm from both the movie and the statements is Hulk (due to gamma) and Thanos (due to being the most durable) are the only ones that can fully survive the snap with some damage anyone else is either more heavily crippled or straight up dead.
I wouldn't say it's only because of gamma. Captain marvel already gained her powers from the space stone, she should be durable to the infinity stone energy as well. But Hulk is also as strong as Thanos, they are really close in terms of strength, the real gigantic difference was the skill, Thanos is like Bruce Lee in comparison with Hulk. So just like Thanos, Hulk is also powerful to survive it. Thanos is also a product of a mutation from planet Titan, we don't if it's like Hulk or not, but Thanos is mutated due to some kind of energy just like Hulk mutated.
Joe Russo: “I would say that he’s just that powerful,” Joe and Anthony Russo said. “You didn’t see him actively use the power stone in that fight. I think ultimately, the way we looked at that fight and the way talked about it with our stunt team when we were executing it was Hulk is obviously very powerful, but he’s a little mindless in his fighting style. It’s aggressive, it’s pummeling. Thanos is the Ghengis Kahn of the universe, he’s a very skilled fighter, equally as strong. So, when you put those two up against each other, the more skilled fighter is going to win ultimately.Which is why Hulk has a moment where he overpowers Thanos, but ultimately Thanos is smart.”
