Could the sequels be in a different timeline?
Read this people!
This theory makes sense at least to me.
I'm not believing on it, neither putting hope or expectations cause I've done this multiple times and I can count in my firgers how many fan complex theories turned out to be true. Buuut I thought it was really interesting and it does make sense as mostly of theories and it would be perfect if happened in the story cause the way I see the sequels would still be canon but in a different timeline. A lot like the multiverse in MCU now, we have multiple timelines and they all are canon. I say this cause I never liked the idea of them uncanonize it because of Carrie, was her last movie and my first time watching a Star Wars movie in cinemas, but at the same time I truly sincerely dislike the movies because of what they did to Luke and to Anakin.
But anyways.... the theory:
You can watch the theory being fully and better explained in this video below from this guy who probably is the one who come up with it, but I will try summarize to those who can't, don't want to watch. Spoiler of Rebels, The Mandalorian and the Sequels ahead.

It's all comes down to Ahsoka and the World between worlds. This happens in Rebels. In season 4 Ezra use the world(kinda a "world" connecting all time and space from SW universe) between worlds to kind come back in time and save Ahsoka from Vader in Season 2.
According to the theory, in the sequels timeline Ezra didn't save Ahsoka and she died. Because she died she never told Mando to go to the seeing stone, so Grogu never sent a signal to Luke through the force so Luke never came and save them, Luke never took him as his student. And everyone died rip Din and they took Grogu and used his blood to create Snoke, probably Palpatine still had Grogu with him because of the amount of Snoke in tubes that there was on his lair. Because this is the thing, the fact that they created Snoke and many othere Snokes mean that they in some moment was able to capture Grogu and extract from him a lot of blood, far more than they could've in the brief moment he was captured in S2.
Another thing that point to the sequels be in a different timeline is the fact that according to the sequels Ben was Luke first apprentice, after Leia, around 10, 12 years after the battle of Endor, meaning around 6 years after The Mandalorian, it was only than that Luke opened his own Jedi school. So how about Grogu? He take Grogu 6 years before starts teaching Ben and open his school and Ben is considered his first apprentice, so I ask again, how about Grogu? Technically Grogu is his first student than. According with the theory is because the sequels timeline is one where Luke never took Grogu and therefore Ben was his first apprentice.
Now we have another timeline, one that Ezra saved Ahsoka and because of her Luke was able to save Grogu(in The Mandalorian) and the future of this timeline is still to be written, shown to us.
Ahsoka is pretty much the key for this timeline.
And guess whose show is coming...

There's a lot to unfold about her time during the OT, meaning her time during and after the World between worlds, so probably this will be explore in her show. But will they take in this direction? Save SW. Save the sequels. I feel this is the perfect answer, the sequels fans wouldn't be much pissed because technically the sequel would still be canon, and yet this would please all the other fans by fixing Luke story and Anakin legacy. So yeah, is a wonderful theory. I trust Filone, but do I trust Filone that much to believe he would do such thing? Not sure. My hopes when comes to theories are very low, but still can't help but feel a slightly bright of hope, who knows, maybe... I mean...
