Battle Which superheroes/villains would lose to a real world SWAT team if they were stripped of plot armor?

The SWAT team will employ real world tactics and resort to deadly force if necessary. Whoever they're facing off against has their standard gear and will resist to the best of their ability, but they don't get any of their standard plot armor.

I mean Wonder Woman, One Piece top tiers like Roger and plenty others are not bulletproof, but I would not say they would lose to a SWAT team due to their other powers.

Wonderwoman is most definitely bulletproof in most iterations and 100% in any of the recent ones

I did not check her recent apperances but I am pretty sure post crisis was not. But she is still too fast and powerful for SWAT to be any threat to her. That said was she not shot by sniper in 2017 in volume 5 issue 19? Here?

The thing is, that was literally plot armor for the shooter and didn't really do as much as the panel makes it look like, the Wonder Woman in that continuity even literally got a NTH bullet shot right in her head by The Batman Who Laughs and still just continued after being out for a short time, and that was before becoming completely bulletproof. Hell in the latest run they need special guns with special bullets even just for regular Amazons.
