Your right in a way, and he was there actually
with Hitler, Ernst Rohm leader of the SA, the 70,000
strong armed wing of the Nazi party, their brown shirted
bully boys.
Fate hedged its bet on Hitler and had a back
up ready, but as Hitler grew stronger, Rohm was disposed
of when his stand in purpose had run its course.
Well, the Nazis did have their lot of career "bully boys". I'm not trying to downplay that:

"Roehm was replaced by Victor Lutze as head of the SA. Lutze was a weak
man and the SA gradually lost its power in Hitler's Germany. The Schutz
Staffeinel (SS) under the leadership of Himmler grew rapidly during the
next few years, replacing the SA as the dominant force in Germany."

Sturm Abteilung (SA) : Nazi Germany

But the idea this absolutely had to transpire is worth challenging, both on purely logical and moral grounds.
