What If...The U.S. women’s professional soccer leagues didn’t fold in the early 2000’s?

In the midst of the U.S. Soccer Women’s National Team’s (USWNT) global dominance, the U.S. women’s professional soccer leagues endured periods of instability, with leagues collapsing due to improper management. In the early 2000’s, there was roughly a three-year period where there wasn’t a recognized top-tier women’s professional soccer league in the U.S. What if the U.S. women’s professional soccer leagues didn’t fold in the early 2000’s? How might that have impacted the USWNT?
