In episode 10 of One Punch Man we´ve seen Tornado defeats a possible dragon threat gigantic dinosaur thing in one blow effortless pulling an enormous meteorite https://youtu.be/LGopXkacryo?t=3m [didnt found the raw vid on youtube for obvious reasons, but you can watch the feat at the corner]
Considering an asteroid made of normal rock and 1km radius:
I found a calc for asteroid impact [not meteorite]

"Assume a 1 km radius, spherical asteroid hits the earth. What is the volume of the asteroid?
V = 4/3 pi R
3 = 4/3 pi (103 m)3 = 4.19 x 109 m3
If the asteroid is made of normal rock, with an average density of 3500 kg per cubic meter, what is the mass of the asteroid?
M = density x volume = 3500 kg/m3 x 4.19 x 109 m3= 1.47 x 1013 kgThe comet that hit Jupiter in July, 1994 impacted at a velocity of 60 km/sec! If the asteroid hits Earth at a velocity of 30 km/sec, what is the kinetic energy of the collision? [Note that KE = 0.5 M v2, where M is the mass and v is the velocity of the impacting body.] [gm cm/s will give ergs; kg m/s will give Joules] Eimpact = 0.5 x (1.47 x 1013 kg) x (30 x 103 m/s)2 Eimpact = 6.6 x 1021 JIf we convert this to megatons, this is equivalent to 1.6 Million megatons."
1.6 Million megatons is equivalent to 1,6 Exatons or Large to multi-continent At least High 6-A, and we are ignoring the fact that she pulled the meteorite a lot faster than it should be naturally, thats why theres no problem using the asteroid calc for this, we lose in radius/mass but get more speed.
Even if the meteorite was more than 10x smaller than the asteroid used on the calc the speed of like 2 secs to hit the monster is enough to get it up to asteroid impact rank at bare minimum.
