Cage being able to give Aquaman a good fight is hardly a knock against Arthur. As a matter of fact, I'd argue it's exactly what would happen if we go by some of his higher end portrayals such as under Bendis.He was able to slug it out with Jen and even though she let him, it still required strength to knock her out. In that same book, IIRC he even -barely- survived a Nuclear Bomb. He also put up a fight against Namor underwater before being beaten. Didn't he also slug it out with Ben?
It's Aquaman people, not Superman.
I also don't know why people bring up Proxima like it was a bad thing? Slugging it out with someone -who casually jumped down to Earth from orbit unharmed- with such force they were rocking New York City is right up there with what would be considered a great feat for Aquaman.
