Yeah, that's possible. But isn't it also possible that the one with the helemet got eaten by the giant snake in the flashback? In that case, the elemental power may just go to the nearest relative/decendent (which may have been his brother/cousin/nephew/son).

My other theory is that, right after the giant snake intimidated the Master of Gravity, it attacked him. In the process, he lost his helmet, but kept himself from being eaten by fighting back, and then unlocked his dragon by confronting his fear.
