TLJ Graphic novel confirms Kylo >>> Rey
https://www.cbr.com/last-jedi-comic...regret-rey/amp/
Rushing off before she is ready, to confront an adversary far more powerful, with the foolish hope of turning him from the dark side....
So no, the Force doesnt just make them equal regardless of training. She has the same potential as Kylo, but is still a Padawan. Hence the need for those Jedi Books.

He only lost once, and that was when he was severely injured and emotionally hindered

Was this seriously ever in doubt? Of course Kylo is > Rey -- same potential; yearS more training.
Same basic reason why AotC Anakin > TPM Anakin -- same potential; yearS more training. /shrug

TBH, this means absolutely nothing continuity-wise.

Rian confirms in the commentary that Kylo and Rey are equals as represented by the force pull struggle with Anakin's lightsaber.
I believe "absolute equals in that moment" was the phrasing.

So it's still possible that Kylo ~ Luke

Canon > Rian.
Also that Lightsaber calls to Rey, not Kylo. As we saw back in TFA.

Unfortunately yes.
A lot of people have argued like crazy that theyre equal. Usually to big up Snokes feat of dominating her.

Which is pointless. Judging by the lightning bitchslap, Snoke could easily do the same to Kylo, regardless of the fact that he's stronger.

I already knew that guy who soloed 3 Praetorian Guards was better than that girl who struggled with one.

You mean the cheap shot when Kylo was in an inferior position? Then getting his guards to intervene when Kylo tried to fight back?
Yeah sure.

Their raw power is equal, as shown in their telekinetic struggle over the lightsaber.
Their dueling skill is not, given Kylo's been trained much more extensively in that field.

As if common sense didn't already confirm Kylo>>>Rey.

Your fragment doesn't prove Kylo>Rey. Only that Kylo is greater in the Dark Side than any foe she has witnessed prior to her facing him.

We see them stalemate in the force with the saber.. Snoke references her power rising to balance out Kylo’s ascent. This is pretty cut and dry. Laughs at D. Thor and his agendas.
