Lesson 1: Parasite is not Rogue
Lesson 2: it's only an assumption to think Rogue can not absorb WWs powers. You can not prove it. She has absorbed Thors powers already, and he's as much a god (more when you think about it) than WW.
Lesson 3: FF VIII wasn't as good as VII, IX or X

Hold on - Rogue once absorbed Thor, but not certain if she absorbed any power from him. Perhaps not, beacuse of magic. However, any person she absorbs - fantastically powered or not - is rendered temporarily unconscious at the least. Same thing could happen to WW...?

I find this battle interesting. First, I would say Rogue, but then learning that WW was immune to parasite's abilities, I would say WW. But if Rogue has absorbed Thor, then I think she could absorb WW as well.
My theory is that Rogue goes beyond mere power absorption, she absorbs memories, and life force. Which results in comas in her victims. If she absorbs WW life force, then as far as magic goes, she gains WW abilities, since she has some of WW life force, she is in essence a psuedo-WW.
However I would need some accounts on Rogue's absorption of Thor and similar characters, as well as some more detailed info on WW bestoment of powers.

My point being you think a person who's leagues below Wonder Woman in EVERY department can beat Rogue...but not Wonder Woman herself?
In character, no. In powers, they are practically the same. Hell they're IDENTICAL.
Lesson Plan denied
Revision of Lesson 2: It is not an assumption because the way Wonder Woman's powers work deny any plausibility of Rogue's power working on WW.
And don't compare Thor to Wonder Woman. Thor was BORN a god. With the genetic makeup of an Asgardian. WW was born completely and utterly human...and then was blessed with magical gifts.
Rogue cannot absorb WW's powers since all magical enchantments prevent such things from happening. Athena and her patrons made it so.
Of course it wasn't. It was the worst in the series. However it did have Seifer
Thor is an Asgardian. Asgardians have DNA just like the rest of us. WW is for all purposes a GOLEM.
Your theory is interesting and insightful....however Parasite can do the same exact thing. Lifeforce, memories, powers, you name it, Parasite can absorb it. Parasite failed and was mindwhammied.
The Gods gave their gifts to Diana and Diana alone. ANYONE who tries to take it for themselves or absorb them are in for a nasty surprise. They found Diana worthy of their gifts as they did Billy Batson.
It's just like Thor's Hammer...WW's powers are only gonna work for WW.
However I would need some accounts on Rogue's absorption of Thor and similar characters, as well as some more detailed info on WW bestoment of powers.
We recently had a Namor vs. Rogue fight...and EVERYONE thought Namor could knock out Rogue in one punch....but WW can't?!
Doesn't matter if she can't absorb her powers. Like all beings completely normal or superpowered, her touch sends them into a temporary coma while she absorbs their minds and memories. WW is susceptible to that, at least.

Her "deathtouch" only works if the ABSORPTION works. Many characters that were immune to her powers, were completely unaffected. In fact in these cases Rogue was the one who experienced a massive backlash.
About as human as she could get. The point is her powers are genetic or physical. It's entirely god-magic.
When the gods were defeated and turned to stone by Cronos, WW losts all her powers. She was completely human. By defeating Chronos, the gods restored their gifts to Diana.

i love both characters but rogue takes a dirt nap her power won't work and ww is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay faster ,stronger, smarter and a waaaaaaay better fighter. although rogue has now gone through the 2nd mutation and she can use past powers she'd have to use a very powerful person to attempt to to take on diana and that persona will no doubt try to take over making it ww vs rogue vs whoever.
