Could Snoke be a relic of the Ancient Sith Empire?

In the novel when Snoke is speaking to Kylo, he makes a reference to when he was watching The Empire. He spoke of the mistakes that Palpatine and Vader made. Leah told Han that Snoke had been watching Kylo since birth. Now here comes the kicker - my opinion.

Could Snoke be actually a relic of the Ancient Sith Empire/Brotherhood of Darkness? The books state that Bane destroyed the Sith on Ruusan establishing the rule of two, but it wouldn't make sense to deploy all forces on one system. Would Disney be radical enough to resurrect the Sith Empire through the First Order?

Opinions anyone?

It would be interesting to learn more about the Nu Canon's lore about the Ancient Sith. Maybe it will finally make sense how Sidious claimed the Sith would "once more" rule the galaxy.

If you're looking for any sick twists, you've come to the wrong franchise. They made that abundantly clear with TFA.

No, honestly. And the less we learn about the Ancient Sith in canon, the better IMO.

Like that'll ever happen, eventually that era will be explored.

You say that like he said it wouldn't.

May not have said it, but thinking it? Mhm.

I think Snoke is a surviving Inquisitor, since he was around at the era of the empire and knows the dark side, but isn't a Sith

It's Ezra.

But seriously, doe... 👆

If he's an ancient sith then he's obviously weaker than Palpatine. 🙂

I personally believe Snoke will be a New Canon Rakata, the signs are there. First Order was founded in the Unknown Regions, Rakata Prime is acknowledged in the new canon, the Starkiller Base is like a super version of the Star Forge in terms of absorbing star energy, etc.
