No it didn't, it dominated theoretical high energy physics, but that's not even close where most theorical research went. Condensed matter theorists and biophysics theorists dominated theoretical physics realistically. Hell, that's probably the reason why the Higgs boson discovery was fundamentally based on existing theoretical work within condensed matter physics.
String theory dominated theoretical physics research for a few decades before falling by the wayside.

Sorry, I meant theoretical foundational physics research.
