Initially he wasn't supposed to, but then they had to make the expansions. I've played the MC and DLCs in different orders, and no matter what, BAW's setting confirms that it takes place after the MC (as was in the cemetery where Regis asks Geralt if he'd found Cirilla, to which Geralt says that he did and that they defeated the Wild Hunt together. This dialogue persisted even before I went to Skellige). Also, if you didn't end up with Triss or Yen, if Ciri dies, Dandelion visits you at Corvo Bianco instead. Geralt survives no matter what.
