Python’s core developers don’t even seem to care about other Python implementations (only about CPython).
There’s no way they would move to, say, PyPy as the official implementation - let alone to a VM designed for a completely different language.
At the time of the original Py3 release, PyPy was not ready for wide use. Otherwise maybe there could have been a chance of it replacing CPython. They were in too big a hurry to ship Py3 though. Tragedy.
