I dont agree with this, but everything depends on whether Aang died, even briefly, when Azula shot him in the back. If so, then the past lives cycle would end. However, Rokku never said anything about there not being a new Avatar. That "Avatar" would have to start over as an energy bender. The lion turtle said energybenders existed before the avatars. Then, when Korra brought Aang back from the dead, the past lives of the avatars was restored. So, when Aang eventually did die, the cycle continued with Korra, a water bender.

If Aang "died" twice, once when Azula shot him, even for a split second, and twice when he was old, then there should be two "avatars.". One who only knows energybending (Amon) and a second that can bend the four elements (Korra).
