Other than maybe NY with the new median judge on the state's highest court, this only works in a world where SCOTUS goes full independent state legislature.  To get rid of the CA (or CO/NJ/WA) commissions would currently require an amendment to the state constitution, which would have to pass a referendum.  Redistricting commission amendments usually pass with >60% of the vote just about everywhere they are proposed.  Good luck repealing one.
