Depends how much you want to look at individual feats and issues as opposed to the general spirit of Batman's history. On the surface, not a whole lot has been explicitly changed, but Batman's entire JLA history has been scrapped as have most of his interactions with Superman.

Punisher gets terminated!
I know you are real excited that after six months Batman finally won a fight (barely), but check your math again.
Punisher: Beard. Batman: No Beard. Ergo Punisher > Batman. Simple! Punisher wins, unless the question is who looks better in a dress, then Mr. Bruce Girly No-beard Wayne wins in a landslide. Maybe with prep he could win... but he probably spends all his prep time shaving his chest and legs. What a wimp.

You can't take a razor to a beard, it's ineffectual, you have to get in there with scissors or buzzer first. If you try to go beard whacking with a razor, the curl beard hairs get all tangled in it and you are basically yanking out hair until your beard draws in the razor tight with it's manly grasp and you now have a razor decoration in your virile facial hair.

I like how I state DCnU and ppl still try to use the old Batman history.DCnU canon feats only. >_>
Haven't you heard? Even though the history of every other character except Batman was changed, and all those characters have stories that intercept with Batman, and changing the history of even one of those characters would irrevocably alter Batman's history in countless and unpredictable ways (never mind all of the characters at once), Batman's history is the same and valid. DC said so. dur
Batman fans are duuuuuuuuuuumb.
And we have no idea what is or what isn't considered canon...
Unless it is explicitly referenced on panel in a DCnU book every aspect of Batman's continuity is Schrodinger's Cat. Since don't have the means to speculate what is and what isn't valid, so all we can do is sit back and wait until DC tells us... until then nothing pre DCnU matters.

An unbiased opinion = my opinion. Batman wins, though Punisher won't go down easily.
I can't believe Batman-Prime thought Batman would win... my world won't stop spinning! I guess the Mayans were right, it must be the end of the world!!! 🙄

And we know based on the timeline and Bruce's age, that he would have needed to conceive Damian before he became Batman, which changes Son of the Demon.
You don't have an unbiased bone in your body.
