Xena vs Wonder Woman (DCEU)

[theoneandonly]

Xena the warrior princess
vs Diana the Amazon princess

[KJS]

Diana absolutely destroys her, by virtue of the fact that she’s stronger, more durable and, most importantly, a ****-tonne faster.

Is she actually faster?

What are Xena's speed feats? Because if they are not in the ballpark of "shuffles across the floor on her knees fast enough to deflect every bullet from a terrorist going full auto" then she should comfortably be slower.

regardless of speed, i'm not sure xena can even hurt diana. she's thrown hands with sorbo-cles, areas, and a few others but nothing to suggest she could hit as hard as DD or stepp.

Massively.

Diana was getting whomped on and flung about by Doomsday, and kept coming back for more. Even Superman was showing signs of being in pain, Diana was like "meh, been there, done that."

That's way outside of Xena's pay grade.

Oh DCEU Wonder Woman is magnitudes of speed and everything else except skill above Xena. Xena is probably comic book peak human at her consistent high end.

If the OP gave her everything she ever had in any episode including stuff she had for only one episode like the force field, the telekinesis, the wings and flight, she would still lose even if she was allowed to start with everything including the Chakram of Light. Partly because the Xenaverse gods were nowhere close to what we see of the DCEU gods so we cannot assume her god killing power can ignore their powers and durability. Secondly, Diana is just too fast. Even Xena would be in slow motion by comparison.

Edit: Leaping ability is way above comic book peak human for Xena but irrelevant to the fight.

To play Devil's advocate for Xena, she apparently has a lightning dodging feat, and is also a master of pressure points as well.

Additionally, if Diana does kill her, Xena could come back as a ghost and posess her

Just to note, Xena never even tried to use her pressure points on a god or similar being. She used them on Ares when he had lost his powers. Likewise she used them on Hercules to ease the pain he was feeling in the episode when he lost his powers. But never when they had their powers except possibly when she had the god killing powers. Again, it's irrelevant with the speed difference.

Xena did come back as a ghost and possess people more than once so that's an option for a rematch. Granted, Diana has no feats of resisting possession though I think Autolycus may have been the strongest willed person she possessed. But again, no evidence that will has anything to do with it.

Can she return as a spirit before the 10 count?

Even if she can, Ares was putting images directly into Diana's mind and trying to subvert her. She resisted fairly easily.

I was thinking of a second match where Xena starts as a ghost. But good point that Diana had some resistance to mental attacks.

Xena did end up killing more gods than Wonder Woman. OTOH Xena got her head chopped off by some Japanese warlord, so not really that durable.
