No, but Nora's semblance and power was shown at a key point that moved the plot forwards; if she hadn't revealed her semblance and shown her power against BRNZ, JNPR possibly would have lost and Pyrrha wouldn't have gotten to the final round. So her semblance and power acted as a plot point, which is why we got to see it.

In the fight against the Death Stalker, her power was used to show Jaune's leadership skills, as he was the one who directed Pyrrha and Nora to make the manouveur that killed the Death Stalker, which in turn set up quite a bit of plot for later.

Ren's skill with his aura was used as a plot point to teach us about aura and what it can do, which is why we got that scene. There will likely come a time when Ren's power and semblance will act as another plot point similar to Nora's, and he will be given his chance to shine.

I mean, don't get me wrong. I would love to see more of him, and it would be great if he did get his chance to shine and he showed he is just as badass as the others. But until he does get his chance, we can't really say "he's not a badass" because we simply haven't had the chance to see it yet.
