Genuinely considered Boba Fett’s escape being the catalyst that sets the guy free. Could even retcon in that the only reason either worked was because of the other. Boba fett’s bombs could only weaken it because of the psychic battle it was already in, sith guy won the psychic battle because the sarlacc was distracted by the bombs.
Could even capitalize on book of Boba fett by having fett play a reluctant hero role for the new cast, informing them of the sith guy’s plans because they were both connected through the sarlacc so there was some bleed over.
I guess the real question is how well known is this escape method? Obviously not everyone eaten by a sarlacc was a disarmed prisoner. So like is Boba just the first one to try?
Apparently his jet pack explodes as well as the grenades. So maybe that extra boom is required??
So like there’s effectively 3 versions of him escaping.
He’s just spat out for no explained reason (Star Wars magazine 1983)
He uses telepathy with the other trapped souls, his jet pack explodes plus he uses grenades to escape. (Legends)
BOBF he steals a convenient stormtroopers O2 and cuts/burns his way out, no grenades (I didn’t watch the show tbh). He loses his helmet through this process somehow tho.
Could even tie in to other lore like Boba Fett’s escape, but nope. Clones again

IMO Boba’s escape precludes the sarlacc from being able to contain a sith lord.
All canon/noncanon stories essentially have Boba blowing his way out with thermal detonators and/or subsequently being spat out.
I feel like the only reason that method of escape wouldn’t be common knowledge is because of how rare sarlaccs are to begin with.
@Canconda @mushroommunk Also probably how infrequently people are thrown in WITH thermal detonators :P

Why don’t the explosions kill him
Bruh 100%. I’m guessing his armour?
