Here's my biggest problem with Aegon being the real Aegon. The Golden Company hates Targs. They were founded by Blackfyres with the express purpose of overthrowing the Targ dynasty.
See, I like the overall theory, especially because it would give Bloodraven a noble purpose with Bran if he ends up helping overthrow the Blackfyre imposter to help Jon Snow, the true Targ heir, back on the throne. But this is my problem with the Aegon is a Blackfyre theory as well.
Even if Aegon is some Blackfyre that Varys is trying to pass off as a Targ to take the throne, at some point they would HAVE to reveal him as a Blackfyre. Bittersteel and his followers wouldn't have been satisfied with the Targ name living on even if it was actually a BF that no one knew about.
They would want the realm to know. And if they reveal his true bloodline after he takes the throne that would just cause a whole subsequent war to break out from the houses that thought they were supporting a Targ right?
I'm not sure I can see that being Varys' end game.

Don't the Blackfyres basically consider themselves to be the true Targaryens? You could be right, but I think the ultimate goal is just to take over the throne by whatever means necessary.

I don't think that is hypothetical we will have to deal with. Aegon doesn't make it through WOW if you ask me. And besides I think TGC wouldn't care if he was Targ in name, they would know he was a Blackfyre in truth and thus feel like their' goal was complete.
