The obvious hints from the episodes thus far are that the Dragon Reborn is Nynaeve. That could be misdirection, for people who don't already know the story, but would you really put it past them? They already just heavily implied that Nynaeve is stronger in the One Power than Logain, which is contrary to the books.
That flat out contradicts even just the base design of the One Power.
Men are singularly more powerful than women by something like half a dozen addition ranks. Even the strongest potential woman will never be as strong as some men who while strong aren't considered anywhere near equal to the strongest at times because it appears to turn into an exponential measuring system half the time.
The Dragon and 2 others are at the top spot in terms of power. Logain is in the 2nd spot. The strongest woman by relatively comparison is down at rank 6. Everyone between Logain and the strongest woman, bar one, is one of the Chosen who were the most powerful channelers during the Age of Legends along with Lews Therin. One of the top spots doesn't even really belong there because it's never shown he has that kind of power.
The trade off with the differences in raw strength is that men cannot form circles with other men and function as a unit but women can with other women. Men can join circles women have formed and lead them but again this requires the women to create the circle first then have the man/men later join. A circle can be as small as 2. The largest potential circle is 72 I think and is of equal men and women as there cannot be more men than women in a circle.
Nynaeve isn't even the strongest women outside of the Chosen, 3 others are more powerful than her!
Did the books narrate the fight against Logain? I can't remember. The whole thing seemed kind of BS. I kind of get the whole "fighting with contrails" thing as a television visual, but Nynaeve going super sayan and healing everybody at once doesn't mirror anything I remember from the books.
The first time Logain is met he's already in chains being taken through Caemlyn to the White Tower to be stilled. He's Shielded by however many Aes Sedai and nobody actually gets a close look at him because of the crowd watching the False Dragon being that large. Rand tries to get a better look by climbing up a wall and ends up scaling the castle grounds and falling into them where he meets Elayne, Gawyn, and Galad.
Nobody interacts with Logain until the White Tower has already had the Schism and he goes with some of them to Salidar. He's not in the books enough at the point the show is to warrant a proper casting by many standards!
Nynaeve isn't anywhere near trained enough to even heal properly so that scene is entirely fluff to make the character look good. Which she needs really because she's one of the most insufferable cunts in the whole thing.
Ok it wasn't witnessed by any characters or took place before the story starts.

As a False Dragon, he was captured in a great battle near Lugard, trying to move his army from Ghealdan to Tear. Aes Sedai died in the battle defeating him.[1]
I guess that's what they dramatized in a bogus way. Well no he starts out in chains but escapes. They just made it up I guess
