Kazan = Wynn

This is just a theory, but in the end after Wynn had been caught Jax says to him that his sentence had been extended for "two lifetimes". This made me think that his first lifetime began as we saw with him being found in the cube and declared mentally incompetent by the cube group. And the fact that his script as lobotomized Wynn is exactly the same as Kazan's when he is found, makes me believe that Kazan is Wynn's second life sentence...which ultimately winds up with him escaping the cube (and getting whatever ambiguous fate followed that).

Basically my evidence for this theory is this:

-The physical ticks he has are very similar.
-The script for each character is exactly the same.
-Wynn and Kazan are both super geniuses.

Evidence that contradicts this:

-Just his physical appearance. (But if he died horribly in his first life sentence I wouldn't put it past Izon to be able to give him a different body.)

Thoughts?

Pretty sure they are different characters, just the same thing happened to them which is why they both have the ticks.

Kazan is not Wynn. The director has gone on record saying they're not the same person.

Basically my evidence for this theory is this:

-The physical ticks he has are very similar.
-The script for each character is exactly the same.
-Wynn and Kazan are both super geniuses.

Wynn knew how to run the cube and how to choose the safe route. He could do the calculations in his head. And so the masters of the cube when they found him, took him out and broke his mind essentially turning him into a savant. Could be this isn't the first time such a thing has happened or maybe Wynn is the first to undergo this treatment and later on when we see Kazan in "Cube" doing the same things we can deduce that he too at some point was part of the control team who broke the rules and because of that was himself broken and sent to run the maze with the rest of the mice.
