SPECULATION Could Kylo Ren be fighting Preatorian Guards in The Last Jedi?

    I got this idea from the recent toy photos of the Preatorian Guards after re-watching the Last Jedi behind the scenes trailer.

    We can see Adam Driver practicing a fight scene against two guys fighting with long spear like weapons...





    ...And recently we've seen these toy photos of the Praetorian Guards:

    This made me wonder: could those two guys be Pratorian Guards Kylo is fighting? Why would he do that? Could it be part of his training with Snoke? Or something else?

    Suddenly I was reminded of this helmet scene in the first SW8 trailer:





    What could this broken helmet symbolism mean? We've seen Kylo Ren fully coverd with a cape, to see him without a helmet soon after, with an obvious focus on the breaking of his helmet. Summing up: could all this point to Kylo somehow going against Snoke's doctrine to the point he breaks away from it and actually gets a scene fighting his guards? Could Kylo Ren actually go against Snoke in the end? Could this point to some of those "shocking twists" we should expect?

    If not, we could only be left to speculate: who could he be fighting if not the guards? Who could have that type of hand-held weapon he is fighting against? I can't remember ever seeing anyone from the Resistance carrying any such weapon...

    Kylo could be fighting against Rey and Luke at the same time. But I like your theory and hope TLJ delivers something along these lines.

    It could be, nothing like a sparring fight to prove he's the knight.

    Yeah isn't Kylo supposed to complete his training with Snoke? Maybe there's a scene where he is sort of sparing with the guards??
