It must happen. There's an Award for subjugating an SSS - the White Dragon Wing Award. Usually it involves a group effort, like when CCG took down Yoshimura. Yoshimura was considered at the higher end of SSS rank, so most SSS rank would be less powerful than him. Despite being labelled SSS Eto's really an anomally who goes beyond the ranking system.

Arata Kirishima has no given rating, but it's possible that he's an SSS being kept to farm his kakuja to make the Arata armor.
