Ainz isn't a top class player and he is weaker than Shalltear. Also Shalltear is an undead so necromany wouldn't work against her and thanks for her equipment (Spuit Lance) Ainz couldn't use his summons against her. So she is not only stronger than Ainz but she is the worst possible enemy for him.

About the other guardians: Ainz has higher stats but he is still an arcane magic caster. If he is forced into a close combat without time to prepare spells, even Demiurge (who has relatively low stats) would be able to defeat him.

But don't forget that Ainz has an incredibly powerful trump card: The Goal of All Life is Death
