Deegan isn't going to be a threat, and I wonder who could possibly challenge him..?

Maybe Tom Vialle?

Kitchen? Justin Cooper? Who is that fast futures kid from NZ?

It's not a big deal in the grand scheme.  Guys will step up their game and everyone will get better.  I've seen it a couple times before in my time with JMB and McGrath.  I might argue that Jett is closer to what JMB did than McGrath.  You'll see a few guys step away, a few guys step up, and some new kids come along already at this level.

Every sport I watch I love seeing a dominate rider or player because not only is it beautiful to watch but i love to watch to see who's going to raise their game to get to that level.

I'm of a belief that having a more random and even competition doesn't mean it's of quality.

Got it. 

I don't think that is what the OP is saying. Yes, it is early days, but I see the handwriting being scribbled on the wall. I respect that hell out of Jett's talent, but I am scared of him dominating as well. MC indoors and RC outdoors became a very predictable outcome for too many years, and I hope like hell there is someone who can become true competition for him. At present I think the hope is that Sexton can be that guy because he's young enough to be around for a while. Most of the guys on a 450 that can sort of run with Jett are just around the corner from retirement.

Let's introduce transwinners so that people who don't finish 1st can still identify as winners.

Win/win for humanity

Its not the dominant rider its the rest of the places finishing behind him and their ability to figure out how he is able to dominate and start doing the same thing so they can challenge him.

Gary bailey used to video every race and in slow motion study every riders techniques to then teach what he found and improve other student ability’s.
