[[WMG: While most of ''Literature/TheHanSoloTrilogy'' is contradicted in this movie, everything in ''the Hutt Gambit'' besides the Bria and Ylesia plot lines and the exact circumstances of the early interactions Han has with Lando and Chewie still happen.]]
If nothing else, the Battle of Nar Shadda and the people involved in it deserve to be canon.

[[WMG: Aurra Sing faked her death; and paid Beckett to claim he killed her.]]
She likely had a lot of enemies; and a reputation as the guy who killed Aurra Sing was beneficial to Beckett.

[[WMG: Before joining up with the White Worms, Han was the heir to the fabulously wealthy [=McClunkey=] family]]
He mentions knowing his father on Correlia, but refuses to provide any surname upon enlisting. Ergo, he has had a falling out with his family, and renounced their name. In the further future, Greedo would learn the truth about Han's heritage, and rub that knowledge in Han's face with the word "[=McClunkey=]". Unfortunately for him, he did not realize that reminders of his family were a BerserkButton to Han.

*The same film features the cinematic return of a guy who was [[spoiler: chopped in half and dropped down an impossibly deep shaft]] ONSCREEN. So yeah, plenty of room for her to show up someday with a one-line mention of having been falsely written off as dead some time ago. It all depends on whether or not [[FirstLawOfResurrection a later writer wants to use her]].

**Unlikely, unless Disney breaks their own canon. Qi'ra is a possibility, but Maul doesn't learn of Kenobi's survival until ''WesternAnimation/StarWarsRebels''. If he appears, it'll have to be as either a flashback or he and Kenobi won't meet. Depending on when it takes place, he's more likely to show up in the ''Boba Fett'' film.

[[WMG:Maul and Qi'ra will return in...]]
The upcoming ''Kenobi'' film.

[[WMG:The Imperial who named Han 'Solo']]
In later years, he spent a long time kicking himself for ever letting Solo sign up. He probably wound up drowning his sorrows with the stormtrooper who later realized that those '''were''' the droids he was looking for...

[[WMG: In a future movie, Crimson Dawn will [[WeAreStrugglingTogether struggle together]] with the Rebels and Gerrera's Partisans]]
I'm less confident about the Partisans, since I doubt if there's anything left of them. But at the very least we have reason to believe that CD's leader has a grudge against the Empire.

[[WMG:Qi'ra will [[spoiler:strand Maul on Malachor]]]]
At the time of the events of this movie, 10 years before the events of ''Film/ANewHope'', [[spoiler:Maul]] is the secret leader of Crimson Dawn, with Qi'ra set to take Dryden Vos' place as his right hand. However, from ''WesternAnimation/StarWarsRebels'' we know that as of 3 years before the events of ''Film/ANewHope'' he has been stranded on the planet Malachor for many years due to his ship crashing there. This means that the crash must have happened relatively soon after the Kessel heist. Given that Qi'ra has shown that she is not adverse to seeking a KlingonPromotion, if she survives their initial encounter, she would be the prime suspect for sabotaging his ship in an attempt to kill him.

[[WMG:Qi'Ra is Force-sensitive.]]
It seems contrived that she met up with Han so easily, and that her role in the film's events was so important. Maybe The Force was at work, adding some supernatural luck. [[spoiler:Darth Maul seemed like he didn't buy her story at the end. Maybe he approved of her KlingonPromotion and she's going to become something of a Sith Apprentice. Darth Maul could be arranging the induction of Force-sensitive street rats into his operations, hoping that at least one will rise to power and help him do Sithy things.]]

[[WMG:Val was working for the Marauders and is Enfys Nest's mother.]]
[[spoiler:It's why Val was so against Han and Chewie coming on for the train job; she wanted to be understaffed on purpose so it'd be easier for the Marauders later on. It also makes her death make more sense. Why blow yourself up over making sure a robbery succeeds, unless you're working for ideology over money? And of course Enfys Nest mentions her mother during her speech near the end.]]

[[WMG:Beckett didn't actually kill Aurra Sing.]]

She was supposedly killed by a fall, offscreen. That practically screams "didn't actually die" to me. And after all, there's precedent for bounty hunters surviving apparently fatal falls in Star Wars.

* Jossed. He is mentioned however (though not name-dropped) as a big shot gangster on Tatooine.

[[WMG:Han will have a run in with Greedo.]]
This would make Greedo's comment that he's been looking forward to killing Han for a long time make sense. It may also reference the "Han Shot First" controversy.

Han might bump into him. Han calling the BountyHunter by name in ''Return of the Jedi'' means they crossed paths at some point.

We might also see/learn more about the big smuggling screwup that had Jabba put a bounty on Han's head during the years he worked for the Hutt between ''Solo'' and ''A New Hope''.
