Malkorok is Prince Malchezaar

[Babzu]

Their names sounded similer and suddenly it hit me; with all the theory that Malkorok is a demon in disguise, would it not make since that he turns out to be Malchezaar who has Gorehowl? (Who both has had, and possibly WILL have Gorehowl depending on your views of the time travel theory.)

Prince Malch is like a nobody in the lore. If they were going with the whole "Surprise bitches Malkorok is possessed," why the hell would they use Prince Malch?

[Babzu]

Prince Malch is like a nobody in the lore.

Exactly why his having gorehowl and claiming that all dimensions are open to him has always been rather puzzling. Maybe he gets it during the Siege as the Burning Legion invades azeroth again?

[KrazyK923]

Uhh---erm-

[Solzan Nemesis]

Timey wimey.

[hulkgor]

Isn't Malcheezar, you know... dead?

Plus, maybe Gammon is actually Garrosh in disguise... it just hit me. Their names both start with "Ga"! BAM, *mind blown*

[Aucald]

Malkorok is most assuredly Mephistroth, the one Dreadlord that's not yet visited Azeroth or been featured in any in-game material aside from cutscenes in Warcraft 3. He's come to find out what's up with Balnazzar, Varimathras, and Detheroc. And while he's looking about why not corrupt the Horde and set them on a genocidal path with the Alliance? All in a day's work for a Dreadlord.

[KrazyK923]

Confirmed, Malkorok is Mephisto.

This is a twist I would actually support

Or he's a completely original character who's simply a giant douche.

This is blizzard we are talking about here.

whoa it all makes sense now, when we encounter him in karazhan he had already witnessed siege and took garry's axe

[Thimagryn]

Malkorok is possessed by the vengeful spirit of Mankrik's Wife, who was also named Malkorok.

Are you trying to insult Blizzard by saying that they couldn't make a rather out of left field lore twist work or are you saying that Blizzard doesn't have the ability to keep a character simple and to the point (despite that we do have villains like that... namely Garrosh.)?

Both. Definitely both.

That's actually a really good suggestion.

Lorewise, Malchezaar never had Gorehowl in the first place. Lorewise, Thrall kept it ever since Grom was killed.

[Feral Camel]

Clearly Malchezaar is Thrall AND Malkorok then!

[Mandible]

He is a blackrock orc assassin, so odds are he is just a corrupt idiot.

I think the idea is that Malkorok takes Gorehowl AFTER Garrosh is defeated.

Man, this is starting to get more crazy than the Ashbringer theories back in the day...
