AWA died in the 90's because it let all of the young talent leave and depended too much on old wrestlers like Larry Zybrisko to carry the company.   Just look at the old shows on ESPN Classics as proof.

NWA is just a stepping stone for promoters to use to get financial backing.   Once they get the much needed national television exposure the "affiliate" breaks away on its on realizing that the current fanbase does not care about the "legendary" NWA brand.  So why pay the fees for the championship belts when it is not needed.  Anybody can claim to have a world title and the fans will believe it eventually....

The top wrestling promotion in America would most likely be some spinoff from the NWA like WCW, ECW, or TNA....

No. Someone was bound to make the leap away from the regoinal franchise, McMahon just pulled the trigger first.
