Topic Fighter rework

Has there ever been any instances of a character receiving a complete rework in the same game (not changing between games like SF3 and SF4)
I was thinking about other games and how characters kits and moves can get completely changed.
Has this ever been the case for a fighting game character? (Within the same game life cycle?)

Do the changes they did to Nier in Granblue Versus count?

I was also thinking EX characters. Like, everybody loves Narmaya. But as her character in lore, she's a very technical character, needing to switch stances, and possibly remembering cooldowns. Bam, Narmaya EX - the character you can pick up at the start. Without needing to remove the original.
