It is because the balls are formed differently and made of different materials, and those materials have different properties. The tennis ball is hollow and made with rubber. It's structure and composition is meant to store the energy of the impact on the wall and use that energy to rebound. The solid (I assume) metal ball will transfer almost all of it's energy into the wall, possibly even damaging the wall.
