The Bride, and Captain Marvel, both went through extensive training to get their skills. Rey did not.

Danvers is not Mary Sue, but Rey is a text book example of it.

If you really think about the time line of TLJ she is with Luke Two days and two nights. Not a lot of training happened in those 48 hours.

I think you are on to something. Most people liked Wonder Woman fine and, while she has some top level power due primarily to being born an Amazon (ie: she did not "earn" that power), it was shown or at least heavily implied that she did a ton of training while she was growing up.
