The fact is, the battle returned to being a one-on-one duel between Shunsui and Stark. And in the end a released Stark ended up being defeated by an opponent who's not a Vizard and who didn't even have to go Bankai. It's a very underwhelming outcome.

Hitsuguya and Halibel was a stalemate because of his powers, and I have every reason to believe she could have broken out, because we have seen her break free from ice prisons at least twice.
And yes, Stark's and Shunsui's battle did indeed become a one on one duel but not until after Stark had nearly disposed of two captain level vaizards. Shunsui is as I said before one of the most powerful captains there is. Stark showed no shame in being defeated by him, especially with the circumstances of the fight. Stark was having to adapt to the fighting styles constantly being put on the defencive because of them.
