What are ths major differences between the Belly 2 belly, Belly 2 back and the German suplexes?

Except for Angle and Benoit who uses suplexes on a regular basis?

Belly to Belly is just what it sounds like. You face your opponent, lock your arms around their waist, and pop your hips to either lift them over your head or over and to the side a la Ken Shamrock or Yokozuna. A belly to back is pretty much a back drop. You stand sort of behind your opponent to one side, drape their arm around the back of your neck, pop your hips to drive them backwards so they land on their head/upper shoulders. A German is when you stand directly behind your opponent, lock your arms around their waist and pop your hips to lift them up and over yourself so they land on the back of their head and upper shoulders.

Bobby Lashley, Brock Lesnar, William Regal, and Finlay tend to employ a variety of suplexes in their ring work.

If you don't know the difference between a belly to belly and belly to back it's pretty fucking sad.
