I have heard good arguments that it might be the Apollos that was mentioned in the book of Acts and 1 Corinthians. Most of this speculation is based on what is said about Apollos in the book of Acts. In Hebrews 2:3 the author states that the message of salvation was confirmed to us (including the author) by those who heard Him (which if Paul was the author, it would seem strange that he say this) and Paul claimed that he recieved his revelation directly from Christ (Gal 1:1,11,12).

I believe that this was Luther's position also, although I haven't actually read his arguments on this point.
