By the time the next Avatar rolls around, it will be far-far into the future. And likely (more like obviously) from Tenzin's bloodline, as you need one bender type to pass on the skill.
 * Fire (unnamed), Air (Yangchen), Water (Kuruk), Earth (Kyoshi)
 * Fire (Roku), Air (Aang), Water (Korra), Earth (unknown)

When Earth and Fire pass, my prediction is that Air Benders will have once again populated the Earth. But by that point, would there even be a need for an Avatar?
