Spoiler!
"Then I saw it, I saw a mom who would die for her son, a man who would kill for his wife, a boy, angry & alone, laid out in front of him the bad path. I saw it & the path was a circle, round & round. So I changed it."
That quote is vital... and really, that plot hole is an inevitability... You're not meant to believe that an old joe killed rainmakerI, so it's never shown and we're left to assume the RainmakerI's motivations are that he holds a grudge against loopers somehow, hence he's killing them off. The key element of the film, and what your biggest takeaway should be is that Young Joe recognizes that a horrible loop is about to occur when Old Joe kills Sara... It's not about what created Rainmaker I, but what will create Rainmaker II. Our hero is Young Joe II, the anti-hero Old Joe and the villain- Rainmaker.
