New Brevoort Formspring

In Infinity #6 Did Hulk actually break free from Proxima's weapon putting the the weight of a Star on him? Was he actually even lifting said weight? I actually think that Proxima's weapon only had the effect of such weight on Hulk, because if the weight of an actual star was used the Earth would have been destroyed, I think her weapon only caused the effect of such weight on Hulk himself and I think that once Cap intervened that the effect was broken, am I correct? what do you think?
