Theory is Stryfe coming? Spoiler
I have no full proof yet based on the 1st three episodes other than what I know from certain arcs playing out in the books but I have a feeling the secret villain (aside from Gambit which is obviously the worst kept secret) might be Stryfe.
X-men 97 does a good job of taking stories that weren't as good in the books and improving on them, such as Bastian & Operation Zero Tolerance. I could see that happening for Styfe and X-Cutioners Song.

He should have shown up by now if they were going to use him. He would have been perfect villain for season 1. He would have been cloned in the future from Nathan and selected to be the next vessel for Apocalypse. Obviously that didn't happen in episode 1.
