There is a scene in the movie where
Scarlet Witch was, what looked like, tearing Thanos apart as his armour cracked, in the final massive battle scene. Then Thanos called for his ship to fire on the ground to get him out of the situation. Did Thanos really need the help, as in was he not able to get out of it? It looked like he was dying. I didn't think Scarlet Witch was that powerful.

Thanos needed help from his ship because Scarlet Witch is more powerful than him at a range and is pretty much literally tearing him a new one. Remember in Avengers: Infinity War when she pretty much held her own against him even though he had 5 of the Infinity Stones in the Infinity Gauntlet and she was also trying to destroy the Mind Stone at the same time?
Scarlet Witch's powers come from the Mind Stone from the Scepeter from Struker's experiments and so that is why she is so powerful. Remember how Captain Marvel got her powers and how powerful she is?

So basically Scarlet Witch could of defeated Thanos by herself in that scene if nothing interfered

@Huangism Scarlet Witch is right up there on the power scale, definitely. Maybe she'd be strong enough to stop Thanos the first time if she didn't have to focus on destroying the Mind Stone; in hindsight, it might have been a better choice to just fully focus on Thanos, potentially stalling him long enough for Thor to join the fight. But of course, she couldn't have known; and in the end, the power of the characters seems to vary quite wildly depending on the circumstances (or, if you're less generous, the needs of the plot :)).

Note also that Thanos, without the Gauntlet or some other weapon, has no ranged abilities. If he can't get into melee range of a sufficiently powerful opponent, he's at a serious disadvantage. And there's the factor that in the comics, Scarlet Witch has traditionally been somewhat like the Hulk: when she gets upset, very, very bad things happen to people she's upset with.
