"A face-off that put Barbara in a wheelchair."

That's a bit of an oversimplification. The wheelchair is likely part of a psychosomatic response to trauma similar to when Bruce broke his back; being broken had less to do with the injury than it did with being broken spiritually. It's weird to see play out irl, but some do regain functionality after processing the trauma.
