Was Wrathions role ever canonically explained?

Hi,

Just saw the new cinematic regarding Wrathion and Anduin.

Given Anduins first reaction, it’s obvious that it calls back to the time Wrathion helped Garrosh and the whole thing snowballed into Legion.

Now, back in Legion, the alpha experience didn’t have Ebonhorn and instead had Wrathion disguised. After finishing the whole Muln questline, he revealed himself and explained his reasoning for the whole Garrosh thing: how he wanted to create the Iron Horde to fight the Legion, etc.

Obviously, all of it was scrapped in the release version of Highmountain questing.

The thing I’m asking is: Did we have an actual official clarification regarding his reasoning back then? Because unless Blizzard wants us to take it regardless, given they removed that whole thing, the initial explanation isn’t canon (or at least not confirmed).

And given the above, this whole thing with Anduin seems to be left rather hanging…

They scrapped allot when it comes to Wrathion, he was also in Draenor but never touched upon during the legendary questline. I think Blizzard never really knows what they want with this character.
