Of all the endings:
Original cartoon: Lord Dregg is defeated, Shredder/Krang are lost in Dimension X, the Technodrome is destroyed and abandoned...the Turtles mutations were stabilized and Carter was gone....was a decent enough ending.
4kids cartoon: Turtles Forever wraps it all up, Ch'rell is dead. Karai switches sides, Hun stays mutated, Bishop/Baxter become good in FF. April/Casey get married. Only loose end was Darrius/Dark Turtles in the future.
Movie universe: By the end of Movie 3 there was no dangling plots, if you count the 4th movie, they hinted a Shredder return but I guess it doesn't matter.
Archie universe: Forever War might still happen, if not, "Year of the Turtle" did a fine job of wrapping up the universe with the Turtles final battle against Shredder. Splinter does say, "This is the last Turtles story, after this one you'll have heard them all."
Mirage Universe: Unfinished, we are still awaiting a Volume 4 conclusion. We have a future timeline though and Tales #69 let's us know how everything plays out. The Image series is also being tied back into continuity.
So it seems to me as if every TMNT universe aside from Mirage did get a decent ending before the new Nick and IDW universes start.
