Ever notice how Korra greatly lacks in the spiritual side of being Avatar? Ever notice how Amon appears to be an "emmissary" of the spirits? I'm of the opinion that Amon is much older than he seems and that he and Korra are counterparts:

Amon - born when Aang died the first time against Azula, and received the bridge to the Spirit World trait

Korra - born when Aang died permanently and inherited the elemental side of being Avatar.

This would satisfy Tenzin's argument that only the Avatar can remove bending forever, and it is possible that Amon is acting on behalf of the Spirits, who maybe want to return to the original energybending.
