So judging by that concept art along with Ewan's comment in the trailer ("we'll have another swing at each other, it might be quite satisfying for everybody....") it definitely sounds like Kenobi and Vader are going to fight in this. Not sure how I feel about that, but still possible that it might not be a physical battle I suppose.
Also looks like live action Inquisitors will definitely be introduced also.
Who the hell cares what the ignorant think? Keep shit consistent.
But considering how Disney has treated SW so far, I've no clue we will get some shitty fight. Who cares about story telling when it gets in the way of money am i rite?
Don't worry, they can still keep it consistent. If i recall correctly, Vader said something like "Last time you were the master and i was the learner.. now I am the master". They ccan still easily make it look like Obi Wan is still wiser and more balanced than Vader in this series, thus making that statement still true
That wasn't the Last Time they met. It was "When I left you" IIRC
Anyway it wouldn't be an outright contradiction to anything. It's not like anyone ever stated the last time they met was on Mustafa. It's just not a wise path to go down, and takes away from the ANH line of "A presence I haven't felt since...." (walks away)

"I've been waiting for you, Obi-Wan. We meet again at last. The circle is now complete. When I left you, I was but the learner. Now I am the master."
There is no twisting this to suggest they fought since their duel at Mustafar. Vader's "the circle is now complete" pretty clearly shows that this is they first time they've met since Vader "left" Obi-wan.
Aside from Vader's statement in the film itself(which is relatively cut and dry, imo), a few guidebooks and novelizations have also stated, quite explicitly, that Kenobi and Vader fought exactly two times: during RotS, and during ANH.
So if Disney gave a shit about adhering to their own canon, then there wouldn't be a proper battle between them in this series -- it would be some sort of 'meta' sequence, wherein they fight one another through the Force or somesuch.
This type of 'battle' has already happened in canon, so Disney *could* do it that way... Though I have my doubts that they *will* do it that way.

Anakin's line in RotS always came off like more of an arrogant/boastful claim, imo(like AotC Anakin telling Kenobi that he already rivaled Yoda in sabers.) Whereas Vader's line in ANH always seemed like a statement of fact:
"We meet again, at last. The circle is now complete. When I left you, I was but the learner. Now I am the master."
This series is set a decade after RotS... So if they do engage in an actual battle, then it renders the above dialogue completely nonsensical.
