I hope not. As stated before, Gohan is the only one who defeated a main villian before (with the help of Goku), aside from Trunks who had an entire arc dedicated mostly to his story. Vegeta has no reason to defeat a main antagonist. He's one of the most well written characters in Dragon Ball. Almost every Dragon Ball fan you ask will say Vegeta has the best character arc and Super just expands on that by giving some of the best character moments in the series to Vegeta, I don't even need to list anything. He has some of the most memorable moments in the series. He does so much in the series both then
and now, I don't get why he needs special treatment.
He's already special!!
EDIT: Just wanted to point out that Vegeta is the strongest Z Warrior at the moment, or at least until Goku gets UI back.
Went off on a rant about
some Vegeta fans:
[spoiler]It seems to me than a bunch of toxic Vegeta fans (don't mistake me, not ALL Vegeta fans by a long shot) started spreading this idea about how much Vegeta sucks because he never defeats the main villian. I know that's not what everyone is saying, but many people are picking up on the "he has to defeat the main villian" part of it. I honestly feel bad for the guy, his fans are his biggest haters. Defeating 19 when no else could? Useless. First to achieve a level higher than SSJ and Evolution? Pointless. Self destruction to try and save the world? Worthless. I mean seriously, we never hear fans of any other character ever say anything like this.[/spoiler]
In conclusion: As someone who hasn't been, isn't, and probably will never be, Vegeta is one of, if not, the best written character in Dragon Ball, so why are people still asking for more?

No, there absolutely was not. 1) Gohan was ranked number #1 as favorite character during the Cell Games in Japan according to a poll taken by Jump. So you can imagine people were excited to see him get the spotlight. 2) It's been proven a lot of the claims of hate mail and such that Toriyama got over Gohan's win is an internet rumor. 3) Toriyama pulled Gohan from being the main character of his own volition, not for any other reason (I know you didn't claim otherwise, I'm just being thorough). I will provide links if necessary, but this is all information you can find on this site, if I'm not mistaken.
