What if one of the many non-Ottoman groups in Anatolia took advantage of the situations given to them and unified the whole of Asia Minor under their control and influence?

Could be the Eastern Romans if Alexios and his plans actually succeeded, or any of the other Turkish beyliks (Karaman, Danishmend, etc), but what about some of the lesser known groups? Armenian Cilicia? Normans/Crusaders? Trebizond? Later on, maybe the Ilkhanate persists for longer and conquers Anatolia?

Who could have conquered the whole of Anatolia, and why?
