After watching Episode IX, I am not even sure Disney considered Episode VI
canon!

I would be surprised if Disney gave consideration to anything in TCW as it
would appear most of the writers have only the most rudimentary understanding
of the universe and characters. There is talk of Bib Fortuna being the former
daimyo after Jabba the Hutt... but that's all we hear of it.

The last episode of TBOBF was a massive let down. I would say that only 3/7
episodes were good with the rest being extremely mediocre.
