Beowulf can't be interrupted?
I can't seem to prevent a player playing as beowulf to use his moves like using that beast hand against me, why?

you can't hit him during the initial frame because it has invicibility frames
you can, however hit him if you're able to block it

there are other ways you can hit him, too, during that super, but blocking and attacking is the safest

But even if i blocked, his super manages to throw me away.

It has armor*, not invincibility**. But that's a detail in this case, so I'll just leave a footnote. Either way, it means you can't jab him out of it, so you have to block. And yeah, he can then cancel it into Wulf Blitzer (special) or Grendel Arm (super). If he has even 1 meter, he can delay it a bit and then do the super as a fakeout, since that DOES have invincibility.

*Armor is active throughout the move, if you have a grab that can reach them they can be grabbed (including hitgrabs like Parasoul's biker, which can be blocked but not armored, but for the biker specifically they can just hit him) or a sweep will break it, but in the case of Beowulf I'm not sure if a sweep is fast enough and I think you're pushed too far back to grab (maybe Cerebella or Big Band can?).

**Invincibility is active at the start of a move and is completely invulnerable. There are technically two types: grab and strike. "Invincibility" is generally both, but Eliza's Upper Khat is only strike-invincible, she can be grabbed. If you're in blockstun, you're completely grab-invincible, and hitstun is mostly grab-invincible with a couple exceptions.
