AJ is Unskilled but strong (check out TV Tropes) that is all.
Even if Pegasi are fragile not every is the same. RD and the Wonderbolts is abnormaly tough kind. Similary Fluttershy seems to have a strong connection with nature also an Earth Pony trait.
On a random note, the pegasi seem to have a history of martial culture, going by Hearth’s Warming Eve.
On another random note, Rainbow Dash is a flyer and dedicated athlete, but Applejack is highly capable at a number of skills sundry - farming, baking, lassoing, herding, apparently everything involved in rodeo competitions, and uh… ice sculpting? (Canterlot Wedding)

@Tenaxviator
aj is a earth pony what means that she is thougher than rd, also i guess the pegasi are the most fragile type of pony, so martial arts wouldnt make so much difference at all
@Impious:
or she will turn down the offer for some reason. What I mean is I expect the story to be well-written. We can guess the general idea, but I want the episode to play out well.
We all know how the Wonderbolts episode will turn out. If she gets accepted she’ll end up leaving the cast. So more likely than not, her dreams will be broken.
Dash has been taking lessons from the Derped One, it seems. The Derped One possesses great skill in destroying wood, so skilled in fact, that they say she can destroy things with her butt.
@BP
RD isn’t stronger than AJ, but her wings are. They are wings capable of breaking the sound barrier. You already saw what she could do with her kick combined with her wings’ momentum.
AJ could probably splinter the tree
Big Mac would Obliterate it

On the ground AJ is better.

and you just said that RD outclasses her

Status quo takes no prisoners.
No one says she is pathetic. And geeze, Rainbow Dash is the on getting overshadowed in of character development so far.
Dammit, I want her to be useful. Not overshadwed by fucking dash
I don’t really it’s it think though.
