Depending on your tolerance for schlock, there's a full episode where He-Man goes inside of a dying neutron star while he doesn't have the Power Sword. The sword, for the entire episode, tries to get back to him (not sure if guided by the Sorceress or of its own will, but there ya go). In it, he has Battle Cat jump through lightning (?), his powers work in reverse (???), and it ends with the aforementioned "throw the castle out of a dying star, through another dimension, grapple onto it, and then land back home". Also he reverses a tornado's rotation and then throws it into space. Because that's how that works.

It looks positively mundane, but all that to say "nonsensical traps sans Power Sword" is a thing He-Man's done before. Obviously Terrarian's traps are more lethal (I guess? I kinda forgot he literally goes into a collapsing star and they just never mention it again) and I can buy them knocking him out, but He-Man is consistently great at just reversing what's thrown at him with pure bravado and reflex. Especially since his rushdown is "most of your rushdown deflected at you, but also He-Man is running at you and maybe throwing stuff".

Also doing the math on the 22 miles per second thing, muzzle velocity of the fastest firearm I found to be at 2800 MPH. So He-Man throwing a rock about the size of his fist would be roughly 28.2 times faster than the fastest bullet. Not close to lightning, but it's fast and I felt like comparing.

Thank you, by the by. It's stupidly fun remembering all this dumb He-Man junk.
