Yet Vader managed it in Rogue One?
Vader is still highly capable from a physical standpoint in the OT era, I mean he's only in his 40s, but his days of leaping about with a bottomless well of energy as a young Jedi are obviously far behind him.
No matter his basic physical condition, though, he's still incredibly strong in the Force, and a highly skilled swordsman to boot. I don't doubt that he'd still be capable of fighting as in the fan video, but it'd probably be against some other Force user past his or her prime, rather than his old master.
The Obi-Wan fight we got was never intended to be a climactic physical confrontation - the closest we'll get to that are two, maybe three battles in particular from the Rebels animated show.

Johnson was great, and is still getting his own trilogy; there's zero evidence he's been gotten rid of. His trilogy will probably release around 2030.
