How is a superplex less powerful than every finishing maneuver

Be be fair, if someone came along and used a Superplex as a finisher - and it was sold as such - we would just have to eat it up really.

Every finishing move is pretty much a variation of a basic move. The Rock Bottom is a suplex of sorts but really probably wouldn't hurt as much as a normal suplex.

We just have to be told that it is a finishing move for it to become infinately more powerful. Cody Rhodes uses a DDT as a finisher doesn't he? His would be no more powerful than one delivered by HHH or Jericho yet it is enough for Cody to get the win. Prime example, The Legdrop of Doom.
