Rey, on the other hand, knew of stories and was more open to the impossible being possible. She also is naturally strong in the force, and it is hinted at that she comes from an important force user lineage.
Luke used the force to guide two proton torpedoes into a hole 2 meters wide. Anakin destroyed a whole command ship in a single star fighter.
Ren is 29 years and hasn't been fully trained yet. In Episode IV, Darth Vader was a 40 year old Sith Master who was known to have the most raw force power when he was only 9. Obviously Luke can't take on Vader, but it's not crazy to suggest that Rey can hold her own against Ren when he is attempting to turn her to the dark side and is severely wounded.
It seems a running issue is that people still can't comprehend that Kylo is nowhere near Vader levels. He's much more like Luke was in ESB.
He was told to capture not kill her, he just took a shot from Chewie to the gut, killed his own dad and fought Finn...safe to say he might not be at his peak.
