Piercing resistance shouldn't be the deciding factor here, as Diana was vulnerable to piercing attacks for decades unless I am mistaken. I'm also failing to see how Wonder Woman would pierce Proxima during this battle when she would not be using a spear? Proxima nearly broke Cage in moments, and when they battled for the second time around she seemed to enjoy being hit by blows that shook the general area like an earthquake. breaking Cage's ribs, is no small feat.

You do know current Diana runs around with a sword that's able to slice an Atom in 2 right?

Yeah, WW's been pierced by a normal bullet and a normal knife. Bringing up the piercing durability trying to make WW look good here is lulzworthy.

Proxima might have a healing factor. Her stab wound and blood disapeared a couple panels later and she shrugged off and mocked the wound as if it were nothing.Her spear is confirmed to be able to hit things moving at light speed (Spectrum), and hurt even the Hulk (based on previews so far).
Excellent points.

Not current Wonder Woman...
Any way nothing we have seen yet suggests Proxima would survive a single hit from WW and certainly not a a strike from one of her weapons.

That slowly was reduced. In more recent years she's done stuff like catch a magic spear wielded by a mild superhuman barehanded- while she's still *more* vulnerable to piercing (hence using the bracers), we're still mostly talking very high-end strength stabbing weapons. More flesh than bones too, which are still very hard.
Plus, aside from that, she's very good at fighting with heavy damage. Having a sword stabbed through her by a god was painful and inconvenient but not near enough to stop fighting.

Her spear seemed to be able to cut through the Hulk. That in combination with it's speed, should make her extremely dangerous even to guys like Thor/Superman. It being fatal for Diana is a very reasonable argument based on what we've seen.
When did Proxima fight Hulk?
