Your pretty much on the ball. The Planet summoned the 3 Weapons right after the Black Materia was handed over, during the events at the Northern Crater (trying not to spoil here...). The Planet only calls the Weapons when it feels it is in great distress. Therefore, they have no connection to Kadaj's summoning. In short, Kadaj clearly summoned Bahamut and as Terra said, Square Enix wouldn't pass up the chance to include a fan favorite materia/GF/eidolon/aeon, whatever you wanna call it. [img][/img]
from what ive heard and seen on various sites it a new form of Bahamut

Bahamut SIN
Role in FFVII: This forum of Bahamut not in game
Role in Movie: Summoned by Kadaj

Bahmut is summoned by Kadaj and attacks innocent citizens of the city. In the trailers, it is the old gang from FFVII [Barret, Cid, Yuffie and Red XIII] who are shown attacking this monster.
