Shamans are all about burst damage...windfury, stormstrike and shocks.
Besides doing less overall damage, 2-handers take too long to cycle and no longer do enough damage to one shot any serious opponent. This means if you don't finish off your target with one shot, there's enough time to give him a full heal before you swing again.
You also have decreased flurry & UR uptime, and fewer chances to interrupt spellcasting.
