The whole reason Hawkman gave him trouble is because he had a weapon that was designed to hurt things like Black Adam. Wonder Man has no such weapon. The way I understand Nth Metal Batman wielding an Nth metal mace could give Black Adam a stir so its not so much an example of Black Adam's weakness as much as it is the power of Nth Metal, its like Kryptonite for magical beings.

I'd actually give Adam 10/10. He has far greater strength and durability feats, he was fighting at Mach 500 and keeping up with Jay Garrick with little difficulty, etc... He just operates on a higher level than Wonder Man.
It's like comparing Nightwing to Spider-Man. In theory Nightwing could beat Spider-Man but it isn't going to happen, same here in theory Wonder Man has the power to beat Black Adam but only if Black Adam stands still and gives Wonder Man one too many free shots.

Not true. No matter how many times untransformed Bruce Banner punches the Thing, the Thing won't go down. There has to be some closeness in terms of power.

That's what I meant, you misunderstood me. Most of the people Adam fights(Superman, Marvel, etc...) are close to, or in his strength range, and continuous full force blows from them would drop him if he didn't fight back.
If someone in your strength range pounded on your face for a while and you stood there taking it, you'd get ko'd in a bit.
Superman could beat non-WW3 BA if Superman fought smart and avoided the magic lightning. Captain Marvel beats BA in almost all their battles. Wonder Man isn't on their level though so he loses.

Like I said before, wonderman has fought some of the most powerful beings in marvel (top tiers) and did just fine so I dont see him having that problem with adam.
Hell, the guy survived being thrown through a planet into a sun and lived through the sun going supernova on him. He survived against an assault from a gladiator that was trying to kill him and strength wise, glads>black adam.
This is a fight but I give the edge to adam. If someone can take a hit from thors hammer and stand he shouldnt have a problem absorbing ba punches. If someone can take a punch from gladiator that was pounding him through earths core then he shouldnt have a problem taking ba punches.
In theory. Nightwing has the strength and skill to take Spiderman down with optimum conditions if Nightwing's really lucky and Spidey's drunk but in normal circumstances it won't happen.
And to carver Wonder Man may have fought top tiers but has he ever taken on his entire planet's population of superheroes at once and won? Black Adam more or less did that.
I agree, black adam did do that, while he was amped. Didnt he have a hard time taking martian manhunter out during the time he was amped so the feat is irrelevant.
I'm pretty sure MM failed to stop him but his attack was telepathic in nature so BA's power didn't help him much. Wonder Man has no telepathy so that won't be a factor here.
