It's no different than certain finishers being booked as more lethal. The Last Ride is meant to attract a 2-count now, yet the Batista Bomb is knocking you out for a 3-count. Why does it surprise anyone, or even warrant mention, that it's the way it's booked? You're absolutely right, but this is the world of wrestling. The Rock Bottom was the same thing as the Book End, but didn't do the same damage because how it was meant to sell.
 
Obviously the Buzzsaw Kick. I believe a kick the the skull from a karate master as was Tajiri's gimmick would be much more effective then a kick to the head from Randy Ortan. I think both moves would be equally effective but when push comes to shove, the Buzzsaw kick.

I agree but the Rock seemed to always have more hang time when it came to the Rock Bottom so it looked more effective. It wasn't so much as how the announcers plugged it as much as how it looked. I mean the Rock Bottom had a kickback type of effect that sent the Rock up in the air when he nailed it. Booker's sort of just was a crisp slam and then that was it.
