I don't think the villain will be a corrupt royal guard. That'd be a bit plain for the next big villain.

Nor do I think it will be Chrysalis, she's either dead, living in exile, or - going by the comics - across the sea having killed or imprisoned all the griffons

If there is one, it'll most likely be Grogar, as the best place they've got for villains that aren't regular old unicorns (even if their power rivals Sombra) are reboots of G1 villains like Tirek, and Grogar is the second most popular G1 villain after Tirek even though Hydia and Lavan are more evil than him (but Tirek of course is the most evil)
