BB & ROTB Wheeljack

Shouldn't this Wheeljack and the one seen in Bumblebee be considered the same guy? Considering ROTB is a sequel to Bumblebee, and the one seen in Bumblebee is nothing like the one from Dark of the Moon and there's actually nothing supporting that the one in BB and DOTM are the same but not ROTB. I tried editing it but the admins just undid it without reason, would really like to know what the mindset is here? Because ROTB and BB are in the same continuity and don't really contradict each other, while DOTM contradicts both a lot, so I don't understand why BB is considered the same as DOTM and not ROTB. If you're gonna undo my edits, at least give a reason as I had. Jman98 (talk) 13:06, 30 June 2023 (EDT)

The big quote we're referring to (in the references section) clearly indicates a clean break between this Wheeljack and all prior incarnations, including the one who shows up in Bumblebee. The continuity discussion isn't relevant here. Saix (talk) 15:01, 30 June 2023 (EDT)

That quote literally only references Dark of the Moon and actually mentions that Wheeljack was set for the film from the jump by Hasbro. He said he reimagined the character, but he doesn't state it's not the same one from Bumblebee because Bumblebee isn't mentioned at all. Bumblebee Wheeljack isn't the same as DOTM either. I'd say the quote actually supports BB and ROTB Wheeljack being the same, only pointing out that he's not the same as the one from DOTM, which tracks. I think the continuity discussion is pretty relevant here since you're essentially placing Bumblebee into two continuities while being selective on how it affects each one, when it's not that complicated at all as ROTB is the only one that it doesn't contradict.
