There are only so many plots.
Everything has been done.
Can you do what's common...uncommonly well?
The New 52 run had Black Adam as the villain, with that other guy but a lesser evil. It would have made sense to focus on Shazam versus Black Adam.
Dwayne Johnson wanted Black Adam to face Superman. Not "some B-lister."
Therefore, Black Adam will face Superman. Not "some B-lister."
Or he would have, had the Black Adam movie been/done better.
Blame Dwayne Johnson's ego. He didn't want Black Adam to look weak or vulnerable in any way, let alone be defeated.
Despite, y'know, being the villain.
