@Princeharris1993:

Because the explosion occurs under water, Kisame will be able to detect Madara as the ocean closes in. During that time, Madara will still be reforming. If Kisame and Samehada are fused, this is almost assured. From there, they could seal him.

Now, about the meteor. Firstly, what can the Akatsuki do against it? We know the destruction level is off the charts, but it doesn't particularly mean the Akatsuki will act in the same manner Onoki and Gaara did. I don't think they'll try to stop it, since there isn't anyone other than themselves they'd have to save. They'll most likely avoid it. Well, those who can.

Nagato: Almighty Push, (he could essentially shatter a good chunk of it. Enough to lessen any catastrophies while escaping the immediate strike zone.)

Konan: Dance of the Shikigami, (can turn her body into paper.)

Itachi: Susanoo, (great defense.)

Kisame: Samehada fusion, (swim well beneath the oceans sea level.)

Deidara: C2, (could potentially fly.)

Sasori: Dead on impact.

Kakuzu: Dead on impact.

Hidan: Dead on impact.

Summoning a meteor is risky for Madara. He is essentially committing suicide, and during the time he is formalising, the remaining survivors can track him down and seal him away. I don't think brining meteors down will be a smart move for him.
