- He broke free and fought through the Nemesis to get back to Omega One.
- He fought Makeshif, proving himself as the true Wheeljack and sent him back to the Nemesis with a grenade that took him and several other vehicons out.
- He left Earth so that he could be on the lookout for other Autobots, particularly the Wreckers.
- He found Seaspray and tried to save him before Dreadwing killed him.
- He chased Dreadwing throughout the galaxy back to Earth to avenge his friend's death.
- He let go of his grudge with Dreadwing and teamed up with Optimus to save Bulkhead's life.
- He stayed on Earth and began exploring the planet.
- He teamed up with Miko to fight Hardshell after he had injured Bulkhead.
- He went with Ratchet to find an Iacon relic and fought Soundwave head on.
- After picking up the Omega Lock's energy surge, he went to fight against the Decepticons in the Warhammer during Omega One's final stand, before crashing and being captured.
- He broke out of Darkmount and left to search for the other Autobots.
- He and Bulkhead protected Miko from Predaking before being saved by Ultra Magnus.
- He participated in the attack againts Darkmount.
- He and Ultra Magnus scavenged what they could find from the Autobot's old baseHe responded to a Decepticon Sighting, though he brought Miko along.
- He and Arcee retrieved a Predacon Bone and later saved June and Fowler from Knock Out.
- He recalibrated the engines on Ultra Magnus' ship.

- After Bee's ceremony, he blew up Megatron's old statue to symbolize a new era for Cybertronians.

- Despite the high admirable standard, Wheeljack stands out for allowing the birth of future Cybertronians, being instrumental in Unicron's defeat as without him Optimus would have never reached the Allspark and Cybertron would have been corrupted, leading to the extinction of Transformers. The effects of Wheljack and Team Prime's actions are showed to have allowed a new golden era for Cybertron in Robots in Disguise and Rescue Bots Academy.
What Makes Him Inconsistent?[]
- He is very lethal, being easily the most violent member of Team Prime who slaughters Vehicons without a second thought, shows no remorse for any of his kills, and takes pleasure in defeating his enemies.
- He is incredibly jerkish and disrespectful, especially towards Ultra Magnus as he holds little to no regard for his or any authority and always disobeys rules so he can do things his way.
- He is incredibly reckless as he constantly rushes to battle without a plan or strategy and doesn't plan his actions through as shown when he took Miko to dangerous missions twice.
- He has a liking for explosives and enjoys blowing things up, wether it's in combat or just casually.
- He can be very quick to anger and let his judgement get the better of him as shown in his fights with Soundwave and Hardshell, the latter of which nearly got him killed.
Trivia[]
- He is the only IA in the Aligned Continuity.
