The 10 Best ‘Game of Thrones’ Fan Theories

3. … And It’s Totally the Onion Knight

One of the most off-kilter theories floating around about the true identity of Azor Ahai is that perennial right-hand man, Davos Seaworth, is in fact Azor Ahai reborn. The sheer fact that he’s such a long shot makes this theory pretty intriguing (and it doesn’t hurt that the Onion Knight is a total sweetheart). In Season 2, he picked up a flaming sword like it was no big deal. At the end of Season 2, he’s metaphorically reborn after everybody thinks he’s dead following the Battle of Blackwater. And he’s there at John’s resurrection. Remember that it’s not Melisandre left alone in the room with John before his resurrection, it’s Davos. The Onion Knight is the one pleading for John’s return, and it’s the Onion Knight who’s most responsible for raising the dead Targaryan dragon from the stone.
