I don't know. Blaze was created specially to prevent the Armageddon. The only reason why he has fire and lava powers is because Delia, the sorceress who created him, was the Lady of flame. If any other god had created him, he probably wouldn't be the lava guy.

So if anyone became the new Blaze, the person would probably be infused with lots of powers from the Elder Gods (not only fire, probably) and receive the task of preventing Armageddon as well. The way I see it, that's the meaning of becoming a new Blaze. Possibly, the person wouldn't even receive fire powers, since Daegon "killed" Delia a long time ago. It kinda sucks much more than rewards, also considering that if the new Blaze (without Delia's powers, he can't even be called Blaze anymore) used his powers for his own purposes and not for his task, the Elder Gods would also have every right to punish him for abusing of these powers.

Basically, all the person would be able to do is sitting there and waiting for the right time to awaken Taven and fight either him or Daegon. Oh, and of course, he could be captured by any very powerful sorcerer and be kept as his prisoner, as long as this sorcerer also blocked his connection with Orin, Caro and the Elder Gods. Yeah, Blaze's life sucks.

I also thought that the trailer guy could be the fire god from MK: Mythologies, but the fire god was much more like pure fire than lava, so it's still much more probable that it's Blaze.
