It's surmised that Fett was the one who walked up to the dead assassin at the end of Episode 5. There's a few clues that support it:
1) The "jangling" sound of "spurs" each time he steps. The sound is heard in Mandolorian and in Empire Strikes Back when Vader captures Han Solo at the dinner table. When Fett walks in the room, the same jangling sound is heard.
2) The sound of Fett's radar, subtle beeping sound. Again heard as the mysterious figure walks up to the assassin, and in the extra scene added when Han Solo is confronted by Jabba the Hutt outside of the bar. The same beeping tone can be heard with Fett in the picture.
A couple other minor similarities:
3) The same cape is worn by the mystery person as worn by Mandolorians. Fett also wore a cape but shorter and smaller.
4) Both characters wear leg holsters.
5) Same type of boots.
6) The scene also appears to take place on the same planet where Fett allegedly died. It's only 5 years after the end of Return of the Jedi, and it reasonable to believe Fett would be in the same area.
7) It's also very likely that Fett, one of the best bounty hunters in the universe, would be intrigued at the thought of tracking such a high priority target. Huge bounty always brings out the best.
I guess you'd have to suggest that Fett escaped the mouth of the sarlacc pit. I think that's reasonable and can be easily explained. How hard would it be for a mandolorian to escape?
Anyway, this is hopeful, it seems all the pieces fit together nicely.
