I guess I'm one of those that don't know much about DBZ. I only enjoy watching the anime and TFS Abridged is hilarious.
But if I remember correctly, SSJ1 Gotenks struggled with Buu (forget which form), but SSJ3 Goku said he could have destroyed Buu when he was fresh and not holding back. Wouldn't that make Goku stronger than SSJ1 Gotenks?
SSJ1 Gotenks struggled with Super Buu. SSJ3 Goku stated that he could have beaten Fat and Kid Buu, but also stated that Super Buu was far stronger than himself(to the point where he didn't even want to try and fight Super Buu.)
IOW: Super Buu>>>>>SSJ3 Goku(full-power)>Kid Buu>Fat Buu.

"It was recently reveled in this week’s issue of Weekly Shōnen Jump that the series will begin six months after Majin Buu’s defeat, placing it in November of Age 774 in the series’ established timeline. From there the series is now set to catch up to the events of Battle of Gods and Revival of “F”, with each being a “retelling” of their respective events, before going on to an all-new inter-universe storyline."
I'd imagine that Toriyama will use said 'retellings' as a means to emphasize a few key concepts of the films--namely, the multiverse. It may also depict a few portions of the battle(s) reimagined. This certainly isn't a bad thing, imo.

[SPOILER - highlight to read]: It wasn't a physical strike, you see the purple ki spread and the sound effects are similar to many energy attacks throughout the series.
Oh well, almost got me excited.

Where Super! is concerned, I'm assuming the show's canonicity supersedes the manga's..? So the show's rendition of said events is what we're going with here, right..?

Well both are telling Toriyama's writing without Toriyama doing the art(sadly). I chalk it up to stylistic differences for now until we get a big difference, like Vegeta blowing up planets passively in DBZ.
For those interested in the feat: here are screen-caps from the show...

Beerus taps his finger on the table: (please log in to view the image) (please log in to view the image) (please log in to view the image) (please log in to view the image) (please log in to view the image) (please log in to view the image)
That was an energy attack, not an amped strike. Beerus simply used a finger-tap as a means to discharge said energy.

It is an interesting showing though. Being able to release that much ki with a tap would still feel like planet busting strength, even if it technically isn't.
