Theories

• One theory states that he is Masketta Man's brother and that Bane left him on board the plane so that Masketta Man would not become more powerful than Bane could handle. Since the theory is rough and vague, the true reasoning behind this seemingly personal affair is hard to figure out.

Juan's Name

• In the Post-Credit Scenes, a man known as Phillip Stryver (played by Burn Gorman) testifies for himself before Crane's kangaroo court, declaring that he is Juan Avyeu, and that his accusers should tell Bane. Could this mean that Juan survived the plane crash, somehow altered his appearance, and followed Bane and his Hired Guns to Gotham?
• It has also been pointed out that the name "Juan Avyeu" (spelling varies) may in fact be a code name as Bane also uses it after destroying Gotham City Stadium when referring to the 'anonymous Gothamite', the 'unsung hero'. As with Stryver and CIA before, it is possible that the use of this mondegreen is one way of expressing one's importance to a situation.
• His name most likely is not Juan since Juan is a Hispanic name and the character himself is most likely of Eastern European or Middle Eastern descent. Additionally, the surnames of Avyeu or O'vous sound French, which again contradicts Juan's ethnic appearance.
• On the other hand, his ancestors could be immigrants who settled somewhere in South America. It would explain why both Bane and CIA pronounces his family name differently, as people with non-Spanish ancestry sometimes spell their family names with a strange mish-mash of Spanish and non-Spanish spelling. E.g. Alejandro Jodorowsky.
• There is also evidence that he holds the title "First" and has an alternate last name, "Tatokk." CIA states "First Juan Tatokk gets to stay on my aircraft" and indeed, Juan did stay on the aircraft at the end. This may also lend credence to a theory that CIA may actually be a prophet, given his ability to correctly predict that Juan would stay on said aircraft.

• If one were to believe his name is "Juan O'vous", this would mean that Bane and CIA both pronounce his name very differently:

"...Button-lee, Juan AH-FU!" (alternatively, "AH-VU")

-CIA

"..They expect Juan OH-FUS ..."

-Bane

• This could also be combined with the theory that his name is not actually Juan. It could be John, but it sounds different due to the aforementioned accents.
