Avengers Could an enraged Tony kill Hulk?

So kinda like how in Civil War where Tony gets so enraged that he tries to kill Bucky for murdering his parents. Well what if he tried to do something like that with Hulk? Could he successfully kill him or would Hulk demolish him?

Didn’t he literally knock him out in age of ultron?

Knocked him out while Hulk was in a state of confusion and not actively defending himself. In a ring like seen in Thor Ragnarok, Hulk would win every single time

I never liked how that scene ended. Wouldn't Tony punching him there just piss him off and fire him back up?

I think in that moment the mind control is wearing off and Bruce was starting to come too and he was seeing the devastation he had caused. It was almost like a conflict of wills was occurring and Tony managed to seize the opportunity. Now when he saw the soldiers he slowly started to get back into a fighting mindset but by then it was already too late. He wasn't nearly as angry or enraged as he was during the fight.

Had the Mind Control not been wearing off or if Hulk was simply not caring about the civilians then what you said would have likely occurred.
