'Game of Thrones' season 8: Jaime Lannister may drop his title as Kingslayer and may take up the fabled title of Azor Ahai

'Game of Thrones' has many wild theories circulating the darkest depths of the internet, but some theories seem to hit the nail right on the head.

Warning possible spoilers for season 8

The season finale of 'Game of Thrones' is almost here, and the amount of speculation and theories that are appearing on the internet could fill another new novel and make a saga of its own. But some theories hold more relevance over other, especially when it fulfills multiple prophecies.

Over the course of the 'Game of Thrones' series, we have seen a lot of character development with respect to Jaime Lannister (played by Nikolaj Coster-Waldau), and we have slowly but surely seen him shedding his title as Kingslayer, along with his arrogance. The journey was a gradual one, where we see Jaime being broken down over the course of the series, where he loses a hand but gains his humanity. His gradual change of character from a pompous/arrogant member of the Kingsguard, to a diplomat with a heart (and literally a hand) of gold, saw Jaime Lannister becoming a fan favorite on 'Game of Thrones'.
