The main answer is Vince buying out his competition and then making the product shit. But whats stopped wrestling from ever reviving is ego. Every new indie wrestler is a narcissist who cant not take themselves or wrestling seriously. Wrestlings a fucking novelty and yet these lib fags like kenny omega, low ki, david starr, all took the fun out of wrestling and made it into a dave meltzer pandering formula that every wrestler copies nowadays. Everyone wants to be steve austin and nobody wants to be a big bossman or a doink the clown. Its all a bunch of masturbatory bullshit made to please no one but themselves. Fuck modern wrestling
