Alejandro couldn't see anything but the game back in World Tour and All-Stars. Since I needed him in the season and he needed some sort of story, a redemption arc made sense. This is further backed by fighting his brother in All-Stars, which gave him a bit of closure. That animosity for his brother and Heather is gone, allowing him to mature.
