He was either going to become the Avatar of Sargeras and destroy the world or become Sargeras' prison keeper...pretty sure that makes him a chosen one.
To be honest I'm not really sure I buy the whole prison keeper thing. Sargaras could flatten him the second he teleports in, you could very well read it as a suffering and damaged person committing suicide after the task he has been living for is completed.
Believe what you want, but Sargeras and The Legion are officially done, that was the entire purpose of Legion. Now it's going to be all about the old gods and void lords.
Here's the thing, though, when/if it all finally comes to an end, it's going to require a deus ex machina that's even bigger than Illidan himself. Sargeras was built up from the beginning of the franchise itself as being the ultimate evil, the biggest of the big baddies. Dude's a Dark Titan! He's unstoppable! As such, the players never get to fight him because having all that hype behind him as a villain only to get slapped around by 20 rando's would kinda piss all over the notion that he was ever much of a threat. So we get Illidan to serve as a McGuffin and imprison Sargeras, dooming himself to be the dark titan's eternal warden.
Alright...so what about these Void Lords? They're supposed to be even more powerful than Sargeras himself...how are we going to deal with them? Get to fight'em ourselves? Of course not. We'll just beat up some tentacle monsters and let Azeroth herself defeat the Void Lords with the power of friendship.
