Let's say if everyones stats was reduced to human levels and their mind adjusted to this change in stats... how far would she make it in this Gauntlet off of skill alone?
1. Spiderman
2. Cyclops
3. Gambit
4. Bishop
5. Black Panther
6. Daredevil
7. Captain America (Steve)
8. Wolverine
9. Batman
10. Gamora
The first four aren't much of a problem with her. She spars with Black Canary and Batman without using her powers. She's brought Lady Shiva to the Watchtower to trade fighting tips. She is, even sans powers, the greatest martial artist among the Amazons, and has also spent significant amounts of time as a non-powered hero.
So Diana is depowered? If she somehow gets past Cyclops ,she stops dead at Black Panther no question. Anyone who thinks she clears doesn't read comics.
Eh? When has she sparred with either Batman or Black Canary while depowered?
If you're trying to play up Diana's hand to hand skills, it'd be in your best interest to leave Batman out from what I've seen. He fares too well against her despite the massive stat disadvantage for there not to be a sizable gap in skill. I think the best she's ever done is the battle on the roof where she knocks off his feet after a few blows are exchanged. On the other hand, his straight up embarrassed her.
It's been some time since I read the Lady Shiva instance; I remember it being unimpressive or some such however. I think it was a training session or what have you that was overplayed at the time.

While not depowered, she clearly fights them in sparing matches without her powers (i.e. Batman uses strength-against-strength holds on her, Black Canary comments in thought bubbles how Diana could end it in an instant if she used her powers, etc.).
? She's taken him out on plenty of occasions. She always beats him outside of sparing to my knowledge (and in sparing, she uses no speed or strength and they're about even).
Hiketeia, League of One, he gets owned.
That battle where he gets knocked down? I think that's one of two from Hiketeia you're thinking of (In it's entirety: pt1/pt2. Batman tries to hit her, fails, and gets knocked off a balcony), and let me show you how the second ended: Wonder Woman wins.
League of One, he showed some truly impressive evasion, until that ran out. He gets shoved into a space capsule/escape pod and ejected into space after this one.
You have an odd definition of 'well enough.'
Not much was shown, it's just that the point is made she brings in high-level fighters to train with and hone her skills because she's a gourmet of fighting.
WW can't turn off her reaction speed, durability, strength etc. at best she can hold back.....but that doesn't exactly prove she was operating on normal human levels.

I don't know why some of you are going on about being right and winning. Rob and Impediment were in on this gag because I PMed them. Silent and Rao PMed me and figured I changed the post. I highly doubt anybody thought Quan made the post, but simply played along just for the lulz.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but Cyclops' only "weapon" is his visor, but that's not really a weapon, just something to control his powers. With no powers it would be useless.
