There is a huge difference between the connections you listed for previous battles and the connections you listed between Link and Peter Pan: the connections in the battles that have been done were of things that are what they are known for. Link is not known for being a green-wearing, fairy-accompanied, never-aging teen. That's what Peter Pan is known for, sure, but just because that's what Link is, that doesn't mean that's what he is, so to say. Link is a swords-pulling, mythical-beast-fighting, princess-rescuing, courageous, stories-constantly-changing swordsman. And you know what? So is King Arthur.

And for the record: Bieber vs Beethoven was a one-time battle where they wanted to intentionally have Bieber lose by pitting him against a music legend. Mozart vs Skrillex wasn't "music", it was "composers of very loud music". Cleopatra vs Marilyn Monroe? Famous beauties with many, many lovers. Abe Lincoln and Chuck Norris? Bearded Republican badasses. Lady Gaga vs Sarah Palin? Controversial women on opposite sides of the political field. Babe Rutg vs Lance Armstrong was, yes, mainly just them both being athletes, but Muhammad Ali vs Michael Jordan was more them as sports legends, people who said they were the best and then went on to prove it. If we were still in Season 1, yeah, Link vs Peter Pan would be good, considering Season 1 battles always tended to have very weak connections compared to more recent battles. But this isn't Season 1. So Link vs Peter Pan isn't a good connection. If you have to scrounge for their clothes, partners, and ages as connections, then you should know there it isn't a good connection. Unless it's something like a name battle, the connection should be something that defines both character, not defines one and the other happening to be similar in regards to that.
