* Sorry to poke some holes in your theory, but ''Tekken Tag Tournament'' and ''Tekken Tag Tournament 2'' are non-canon by virtue of being [[Dream Match Game|Dream Match Games]], not to mention that {{spoiler|Unknown was intended to be Jun Kazama's ''sister'' before ''TTT'' became a spin-off.}} Nothing's been explicitly stated yet in actual ''Tekken'' canon, but it's unlikely that it's true, so I wouldn't try to take the implications that {{spoiler|Unknown is a demon-possessed Jun}} with more than a grain of salt ''at best''. Harada could've used {{spoiler|1=Jun/Unknown as the final boss of ''TT2'' simply as a nod to the various Jun = Unknown theories out there}} for all we know. Could this change in the future? Possibly, but I guess we'll have to wait for ''Tekken 7''. Additionally, Z.W.E.I. having E.I.N. as a [[Familiar]] doesn't necessarily mean that he's related to {{spoiler|Jun}}. E.I.N. could simply be that very same wolf demon itself (or at least be connected to it).

* And not quite in the way you think. This isn't my theory ([http://8wayrun.com/threads/soul-calibur-5-general-roster-speculations.7437/page-532 the credit goes to the people here]), but it's a very interesting one that could very well hold true. To sum it up, there are several factors involved, which I will list below:

## Nightmare is four inches taller than he was back in the other games due to now inhabiting a different body. He's now 5'10", the same height as Raphael.

## According to his bio, Raphael wakes up in a cell (the location is unknown) with no recollection of ''how'' he ended up there. Additionally, Soul Edge is said to have used a spare body found beneath Ostrheinsburg Castle as his host sometime after being killed by Siegfried and subsequently regaining consciousness.
