AMD has already stated that they're going to continue with Threadripper. It would leave a fairly big gap in the lineup with nothing to compete against Intel's X299 platform. AM4 is lacking in memory channels and PCIe lanes. Epyc has much lower clockspeeds, much more expensive CPUs, and more expensive motherboards than Threadripper.
