What would have happened if the Executor wasn't disabled?

i think if the executer had not been destroyed i think the empire would have won. When you look at the SSD, its pretty big and i dont think the rebels had enough fire power to take one down with the force they had. I mean the empire still had SD's and such so theres no way the rebels could have successfully destroyed it without taking huge loses.

My 2 cents

Hmmm so they could have taken out Ackbar and his command staff, the Rebel commando team containing key players like the Skywalkers, Han Solo. Could the Rebel Alliance fight effectively after losing important people like them ?
According to the RotJ Novelization, EVERY member of the the Rebel Alliance was present at the Battle of Endor. If the Imperial Fleet had wiped out the Rebel Fleet at Endor, the Alliance would be virtually destroyed

Which was why Palply had even allowed them to come. To kill them all in one strike.
