I still don't know what you guys aren't getting? All of Ahsoka's showings from TCW and Rebels still count towards her live action appearances, and nothing released so far has implied that she has gotten weaker or less skilled over the years. Maybe you're letting the show's shit choreography cloud your judgement? If so keep in mind that Luke's choreography was also shit when he fought Vader in ROTJ, but based on all the canon material at hand, we know that Luke was in actuality a top tier duelist who was legit on par with Vader at the time. So yeah.
And based on what is Baylan weaker than Ahsoka? Because I got the exact opposite impression based on their fights.
Theres literallly no excuse for shit choreography in todays day and age. Remember Maul vs Ahsoka from TCW Finale was done via motion capture.
This is Ahsoka from a different era so no she doesnt automatically get feats from different eras. Just like Rebels Maul is not automatically assumed to be =/> than his previous incarnations.
All that said Maul vs Baylan would likely be a good fight.
Edit - also didnt sw.com confirm Rebels Maul was stronger than Ahsoka ?

Honestly, there is a very good, simple excuse. Good CGI requires time invested in it, regardless of current technology. Studios these days are all about the crunch, pumping out new content as fast as they can. They're not giving projects the time they need to actually do any sort of polish, ergo the CGI doesn't look as good as it did when Lucas was making a passion project and being a complete perfectionist when it came to the CGI of the Prequels.
Until we get a legitimate reason to believe that Ahsoka somehow lost power and skill between Rebels and her live action series, then she DOES get all of her previous feats.
