This is by far the most well thought out theory I've heard since the show started, so this is really a breath of fresh air, but I highly doubt it's Bumi or Aang for just a couple of very simple reasons.

My main reasoning being that, if you pay attention to Amon's eyes, you'll notice that they usually have a goldish hue to their coloration, which leads us to believe he is from the Fire Nation, while most air nomads had brown or grey eyes. Aang and Katara both had light colored eyes (grey and blue) which are on the opposite side of the color wheel of yellow.

You did make a really good point about Aang being currupted, and that fits in really nicely with Amon's speech about the spirits havign deemed the Avatar unfit. If he was currupted and, possibly turned evil, than it would actaully make sense, given Aang's nature, that he would deem all other Avatars unfit. he would blame himseld and the avatars before and after him, for whatever went wrong in the world, and may come to the conclusion that bending is the ultiment cause. But again, as we've seen breifly with Amon, his eyes are the wrong color, so this still is debunked...

This brings us to Amon being Zuko. Now, if you have seen the mini comics where Zuko is agruing with Aang over weither all the Fire Nation colonies should be moved or not, you'll know that we did see some confrontation between Aang and Zuko after the war was over, which certainly gives Zuko motive to become Amon. The problem with the Zuko theory, evidance or not, is that he would be about 80 years old now? Even if he kept himself in shape, we would see some indications that he had aged.

I think it's more likely that Amon might be Zuko's son, or maybe even Azula's child somehow. There's really no way of knowing for sure, but you have to admit that Amon and Azula do have some things in common, namely their insane ambitions.

One off theory me and friend cooked up was that Azula broke out of prision and hid away somewhere in the countryside. Later, she met someone and had a child. We all know that Zuko has a lat of issues with Azula, so upon her escape, he would probably send someone after her. During this time frame, Azula is dealing with her non-bending child, and is trying to figure out what to do with him, when she and her lover are confronted by Zuko's hitman.

The Hitman attacks harshly and quickly, taking advantage of the fact that Azula has been in prision for years, and probably isn't in her best shape. At the deciding moment of the battle, little Amon (picture it kids, cute little tot walks in with a mask XD) walks in, witnesses his parents murder, and his badly injured in the aftermath of the attack.

The hitman, realizing their was a child present, takes him to Zuko and Mai, who pass him on to Ty-Lee who takes him under her wing and teaches him everything she knows. We all know that Ty-Lee was a really good person, and that she went to stay with Suki and friends on their island, so that would explain how Amon learend to fight. He probably would have nothing better to do but study under Ty-Lee, secretly plotting his parents revenge.

Finally! The conlusion!

Amon finds out that Ty-Lee knew his mother, as did the rest of the Avatar gang, and they still killed her, and horribly scared him. Amon ultimently blames Aang and Zuko, namely benders in general, and becomes crazed with avenging himself and his mother, not realizing that she's nuts. Yep, that's what I got.
