This sounds crazy right? The only reason I'm giving this theory some (very little) credibility is because J. J. Abrams said that the new trilogy is about the Skywalkers. You could say that Kylo Ren is a Skywalker by extension, but that would be a stretch. Continue reading to find out about this fan theory.
