In Dragon Ball's original universe, Frieza, as the Emperor of the Universe, had been absolutely invincible in the early days.
In an era when a combat power of several tens of thousands was enough to run rampant, he possessed a staggering combat power of 530,000 in his first form alone, not to mention his successive transformations.
