Wonder Woman vs. the Hulk
Here's the rules : completely featureless environment (e.g. no buildings, no cars, no boulders etc.) / both contestants are at their best / both contestants no nothing about each other / both contestants will give their all to win. No outside influences (e.g. superhero allies, Greek Gods)
At normal power levels, the Hulk and Wonder Woman are equal in strength. However, Wonder Woman has the edge in super speed and warrior training. The Hulk is not proficient in tactical combat. "Hulk Smash!" That's it. Wonder Woman would pummel him from a dozen different angles at near-invisible super speed, and the Hulk would angrily lash out on thin air. Nerve strikes, pressure points, paralysis points. Wonder Woman knows them all. The Hulk does know the concept of a calculated fight. Without a doubt, this would be the most difficult fight of her life, but after suffering horrific wounds WW would be the last one to be (barely) standing.
Wow! Another one of those threads that needs some thought. Could Wonder Woman take out the Hulk fast enough before his gets to apes**t anger levels, that is the question. If she is not able to take him out soon, I fear that Hulk owns the advantage the longer the fight goes, especially with his healing factor. However, Wonder Woman may as well be called Diet Superman or Superman Light. This is a fight I would pay to see.
i see what u mean draco, but all it would take is one good strike to stop ww in her tracks, thereby negating her speed.
and even if she conrtinuously hit pressure and nerve points, the hulks skin is so thick, it would take a lot of effort to even damage him. then there's his healing factor.
i just think she won't be able to take him down fast enough, which will give him the chance to take her.
As I said Diana and the Hulk are equal in strength, so "one good strike" would barely faze her. The main argument that I present for the subject of Wonder Woman beating the Hulk is her versatility. The Hulk only has his strength, invulnerability and healing factor. Wonder Woman has equal strength, equal invulnerability, superspeed that exceeds the speed of sound (that's 1509 feet per second), an unbreakable and immutable golden lasso, a pair of unbreakable silver gauntlets capable of reflecting any and all damage, and magically endowed body armor ( yes, believe it or not that bikini outfit is extremely durable.
The Hulk in battle acts out in blind rage and anger. For Diana, everything is calculated. Diana has been trained since birth to kill and maim in dozen different languages. She's gone up against gods and won.
Furthermore, many people underestimate Diana's Lasso of Truth. Despite its corny name, it truly is a deadly weapon. Say a man of average strength uses a whip. The cracked tip of a whip travels at the speed of sound and his capable of rending steel. Now imagine a unbreakable rope wielded by a person of unimaginable strength. The results would be devastating to the Hulk. While, the Hulk is incredibly powerful and has a impressive healing factor. He still has human needs. Namely the need to breath. I see Diana tying her lasso around his neck and blocking his air supply. Wonder Woman is too cagey for the Hulk to beat. Blind rage versus a master tactician. It's no contest.
ok i know she's veratile(extremely versatile), but since when is she as strong as the hulk? and since when is she as invulnerable? sure she's smarter, but thats not everything.
while i agree she could win, she would need a hell of a lot of luck to do it. i do think though you are seriously underestimating the hulk. the guy hasnt gotten to where he is today by fluke, he is one of the heavy hitters of the comic world. he is in the top class with juggernaut, gladiator and supes. i just dont see diana up there with him.
Diana is just as strong and invulnerable as the Hulk. (Except for that bullets and sharp things can pierce me thing, I don't know what the deal is with that.) Diana was granted the strength of Gaea which is greater than that of Hercules. In the DC universe, Hercules once supported the entire world on his back for ten minutes and he did. Later on, Athena punished Hercules for enslaving the Amazons by having him carry the entire weight of Paradise Island for nearly three thousand years. Hercules supported a populated island that is about the size Manhattan island for nearly three thousand years. Now Diana is STRONGER than him. Her maximum strength exceeds 100 tons as does the Hulk. However though they are equal in strength, Diana knows how to use it more efficently than he does. She has finesse and grace with her blows while the Hulk does whatever meets his fancy. I know that the Hulk is unimaginably powerful. But Diana, after the toughest fight in her life, will eventually be the victor.
XD...what the hell?? Do you guy's actually think Wonder Woman can beat the hulk...lol...that's so laughable, if you guys really think so then heaven save us all!!
The Hulk is "power incarnate", his power never stops rising, now I'd give Superman the fight over the hulk but WW is just saying to much..
Wonder Woman is indeed extremely stong, durable, has the magic lasso etc..But all those things we're completely "worthless" against Doomsday whom is DC's version of the hulk, she couldn't even "scratch him...While she may be more calm, passive and calculate, that sometimes doesn't matter in comic battles, i'm sure Gladiator was more calm and calculate as was Thor, Hulk had no trouble beating the crap out of them both..Sometimes sheer power reigns supreme..And his healing factor is uncanny in itself, it's questionable whether wonder woman is a "durable" as the hulk(although I'd like to find out in more ways than one 🙂) but it's "iffy" if she can take a nuke and fight on..I've seen comics of her getting floored from tanks...
Sorry but in a nutshell seeing Wonder Woman beating the hulk is damn near impossible, she's just not high enough on the food chain to beat Marvel's top-tier strong guy..She's kind of around Rogue/Marvel Girl, maybe alittle over type of power...although she goes blow for blow with Kal-EL from time to time(he usually holds back), she was utterly useless in the Doomsday battle, although Dooms may be stronger than the hulk I "know" the hulk would have put up a better fight against Dooms...That alone in itself says that the hulk is just to high on the horse to lose to Wonder Woman...
I'd say Wonder Woman, because she's just as strong as Hulk, if not stronger (which I personally think she is, being a DC character, and she's close to Superman's level of strength). Plus, she's also much faster, and a far better fighter. And, I wouldn't compare Hulk to Doomsday, as far as strength goes. True, Doomsday may be a carbon copy, but regardless, I'd say he's much stronger than Hulk, and of course much faster also.
Sweet Mother of Pearls! I'm gone for a minute and a Hulk fanboy shows up! What exactly is the appeal of overgrown Gumby in lavender pants? This a response to Sarcastic OJ's thread
Years ago, a reputable magazine called the Wizard held a conference with its scribes and numerous comic book writers/creators to meet a truly arduous task: Who is the toughest superhero? After months of debate and pathetic fake lightsaber fights, they finally came up with a list of the top ten toughest i.e most powerful superheroes in comicdom.
The list is as follows from weakest to strongest:
10. The Hulk
9. Firestorm (encased the Hulk in an unbreakable cage)
8. Professor X (turned the green giant into a green vegetable)
7. Spawn (did all kind of crazy things with his Satanic powers)
6. Dr. Strange (put him to sleep, teleported him to another dimension etc)
5. The Flash (vibrated through him...made the Hulk into a green Slurpee)
4. WONDER WOMAN (For the reasons stated above)
3. Superman (Superior strength, speed, heat vision, ice breath, etc.)
2. Thor (More experience, control over the elements, tougher)
1. Silver Surfer (blasted him into oblivion with the power cosmic)
Due to this day the list still holds true. (Although Green Lantern probably made the list now, so the Jolly Green Giant may have been kicked off)
The Hulk is "Hulk Smash!" That's it! Nothing else. Old Jade Jaws is walking engine of destruction, but he's has the emotional age of child.
Sakastic OJ mentioned the Gladiator losing to the Hulk. The Gladiator's power stems from self-confidence
(continued)
Can you imagine a more unreliable power source? The mohawk Gladiator said "I think I can, I think I can" as he fought an unstoppable, tower of death. No wonder he lost! Gladiator isn't even in the same league as Wonder Woman.
Once again, Doomsday has been portrayed as an equivalent of the Hulk. And with good reason. The Hulk is a incredibly powerful behemoth with an impressive healing factor. Doomsday is an incredibly strong behemoth with an impressive healing factor. The only exception is that the Hulk is dumber than Jessica Simpson (which is feat in itself) and Doomsday is quite articulate. Doomsday was a constantly evolving foe that increased in strength, intelligence, and invulnerability as time passed. Superman hits him heat vision. Two minutes later, hes immune to it. True, Wonder Woman could not do much to Doomsday, if anything at all. However Doomsday killed Superman, defeated the entire Justice League and cut through the entire Green Lanterns Corp like a scythe through ripe wheat. The Hulk would never be capable of such actions.
Wonder Woman would defeat the Hulk. Just ask any comic book writer and/or creator. If Bruce Lee went up against the heavy-weight champion of the world, Lee would most certainly prevail. Same thing with WW. Strength and invulnerability they both have. Wonder Woman has decades of warrior training and experience, two unbreakable silver gauntlets that can deflect any clumsy blow that Hulk would make, and faster than the speed of sound superspeed. Can you imagine if someone just as strong you hitting and kicking you at an excess speed of 1500 ft. per second? "Hulk Smash!" That's it! Diana is much more versatile than that.
