I'll just copy-paste what The King of Monsters said to drive in the point:

Please, not this again.

Godzilla: Final Wars and the Heisei series are part of two separate continuities and are not related. The Godzilla in Final Wars is said to have first appeared in 1954 and was supposedly frozen in the 1960's, while Godzilla Junior wasn't even born until 1994 and didn't become Godzilla until two years later. It is logically impossible for the films to be connected. If Toho wanted Final Wars to be a sequel to the Heisei series, they would have explicitly made it clear in the film. The stock footage in the beginning of the film means nothing, it was just added to look cool and celebrate 50 years of the franchise.

Seriously, it's been almost 11 years. Nobody should still believe this.
