Might happen anyway, but in its current form I see that as an eventuality.
I think the league is heading down the road to extinction in its current form. Attendance was dropping before the pandemic as 2019 marked the 8th year in a row of declining attendance. I've been a fan for a long time and 2019 season had more empty seats in McMahon as I've seen in a long time. The fanbase is aging and a lot of fans are dying off and not being replaced. Incompetent league management hasn't helped the cause but the league has tried and simply can't get enough younger fans to embrace the league. The TSN deal is the only thing really keeping the league a float and if they pulled out it would be over just like that.
