Why can brig stun rein out of charge?

General Discussion
1

see when rein charges into a doomfist punch, they both get stunned, implying that rein charge is equally powerful as doom punch.

now when rein charge into a brig shield bash, rein get stunned, wtf? so Brig shield bash is more powerful than rein charge and doomfist punch? makes no sense.

Shield Bash
Now knocks down and gets knocked down by other charging targets (e.g Reinhardt and Doomfist)
