I know my jaw hit the ground when I saw that happen, the shot was definitely worthy of a flat 10 because it had lost energy in the front, but not enough an 8-10 IMHO. He must've missed it at the bottom a little bit and this begs the question, would that happen to WRW if he was throwing anything other than Mo Rich ? I believe the answer is no, if he's throwing a ball with a symmetrical core, that doens't happen, period IMHO. It's amazing to me how well he can compete with Mo Rich, but I think it matches up horribly to what WRW does most of the time, especially on TV.
This is just my opinion and I'm not trying to question the "Hank Aaron" of bowling, he knows how to bowl much better than I ever will. I also understand that he's probably he gets paid very well to use MoRich, but I wonder if it's worth it and how many titles WRW would have using equipment with symmetrical cores that in my opinion, would make it easier to WRW to match up week in and week out. My educated guess would be 50+, which is actually kind of scary if you think about it for a minute.
