That dramatic fight to the death demonstrates just how incredibly powerful Wonder Woman actually is! She actually removes her Bracelets of Submission to fully unleash her strength to stop the attacks – those things hold her back for years, limiting Wonder Woman’s powers, to maintain some semblance of control over herself and her immense power. The absence truly conveys what that power increase represents and it's seriously incredible, especially given what happens in this fight, and what had been achieved, and those actions she undertakes during the confrontation. While Superman fights back with the ferocity imaginable of someone who just wants to survive such an immense and unrelentingly hostile confrontation, this is only done as a way to show that this fight truly demonstrated her enormous strength against an extremely powerful opponent, without showing Wonder Woman as uncaring toward those potential losses. Ultimately it's more to emphasize Superman's reluctance toward murder, demonstrating that while it ended dramatically for Superman; his death served as another necessary element in making that whole climax an absolute necessity and impact that changes everything moving forward.
