If Vincent Gigante's attempted assassination of John Gotti would have been successful, I think it would have had a major impact on both the Gambino Family as well as the rest of the New York Mafia. With Gotti gone,the Family would have installed more appropriate leadership,and quietly slipped back into the shadows.
Gravano would not have been underboss, and without the Gotti leverage that he provided to the FBI later,quite possibly wouldn't have flipped.
Also, the increased attention that the FBI was focusing on Gotti. as well as the Mob in general, might have abated a bit. Nothing good came of Gotti's reign and nobody would have been sorry to see him go.

. If Frankie Decicco survived instead of Gotti its a certainty they would of had a long run

I think if the 3 captains who were murdered in 1981'; Phil Giaccone; Dom Trinchera and Sonny Red Indelicato made the move of making peace or atleast having a working relationship with the Sicilian faction of the family. They could have took the family from Phil Rastelli. There were alot of people in that family getting fed up with him.
They didn't make that move though; and they ended up; All 3 being clipped.
