Everyone has their strength and weaknesses. Would you say the only reason Sirzechs beat Issei isn't because of his strength, but because of the nature of his abilities? Don't try to comppare Rias to a Satan-class opponent like Diehauser Belial who has extensive Rating Game experience. Rias' demonic powers, her POD, and her being a power-thpe is where her strength lies. Just because Kiba doesn't have any large and flashy attacks and relies on his speed and techniques he is still strong nonetheless. Everyone has their weaknesses even the strongest opponents if you look hard enough. Rias isn't going to be able to beat everyone. She isn't a physiclal fighter like a lot of other devils aren't. There is always going to be someone stronger.
