Sounds ...
mmm
I shouldn't encourage this, but, believe it or not, in the present DCnU series, the first time we see Diana free of those bracelets is actually in a bedroom ...

It's worth noting, too, that the Faora/Zod engagement was done while Diana was cuffed, not uncuffed.
She was, in other words, operating at her lower, standard levels of physical strength and power, not the higher ones being suggested here by the thread starter.
For the sake of argument, though, I now feel the obligation to point out the following:
1. Zod and Faora are not yet fully versed in the use of their Kryptonian superpowers.
2. Kal was being double-teamed. Diana was too, of course, but she's had formal fight training, presumably even in melee fighting,
where one person must go against a group of people, not just fight one on one. Kal hasn't.
3. Diana, compared to yellow-sunned Kryptonians, has crap for durability.
Note that she feels the need to defend against Zod's heat vision attack with her sword and takes care to avoid getting hit even while she actively grapples and fistcuffs her opponents. She can't necessarily take what she's able to dish out.
Still, that engagement with the 2 superpowered Kryptonians was impressive.
Diana seems physically stronger than Faora even when Faora uses two hands to try to wrestle Wondy's sword from her,
and subdued Faora in their second "round" to the degree that Diana was able to toss Faora aside one-handed after Zod negotiated for her.

Superman. Orion outperformed her against First Born while she was uncuffed.
Compared to getting taken out by a simple divebomb.
Even War did better than her.
But beating a random featless goddess Artemis who she beat while being cuffed too and getting her shit pushed in by First Born worse than Orion means she wins against Superman. Oh KMC.

^Not sure exactly what you're trying to prove using those scans, but claiming that Orion and War "did better" then her when the most damage on-panel was done by Diana herself(a single cold-clock from her bloodied his jaw up as opposed to Orion doing his eye-gouge and War doing virtually no damage) is....odd to say the least.
