The fact that the LHC hasn't seen anything new is the entire point here because it yields evidence against SUSY. That puts almost all of mainstream HEP theory in bad position because it has been built around SUSY being real and an accepted hypothesis.
As usual, theoretical physics is taking the wrong message from this, sticking to their guns and claiming SUSY evidence is yet above 10 TeV instead of stepping back and re-evaluating their fundamental assumptions. Of course they won't because many have built their careers on this hypothesis.
I forsee a reckoning for the whole field (which will take on economic dimensions) in the future.
