My guess is he is either a descendant of one of the Freedom Fighters or someone we've never previously met in the series. No, it cannot be Ozai, because he'd be dead by then. No, it cannot be Aang, because then Korra would not be in existence.

I do think that Amon is a bender, though. The energy-bending IS a type of bending. It would also give him a sort of Hitler archetype where he's persecuting his own kind, and that sort of villain is rather popular in media (i.e. Voldemort). I also think that he is either the man we see in Korra's flashbacks or his son.

It would be interesting if it was someone we know from the old series, but I doubt it.
