Actually I have seen it in series where someone is presented as the main villain since the beginning (despite their being other ones, at the time yes the Captains and other shinigami were considered bad guys...then they became the goodies) and then all of the sudden it's revealed that there was an even bigger bad than he (think of...evil mastermind causes problems the whole show, then all of the sudden an ancient demon or some other really powerful being shows up, most likely either killing the current baddie or appears AFTER the current died). I imagine if Aizen falls in this Arc, the next villain's abilities will far surpass even his...which might mean some good guys will finally DIE.

I could see enemies from the Royal dimension as a possibility, even from Hell (think about it...Shinigami and Espada are far different from each other, if the series was to be split into 3...kinda like Naruto will be, then the 3rd part of the series would probably feature an entire new type of enemy...like Hell's enemies? We don't know what they are, only briefly seen for a few pages in the Manga and at the end of an episode in the show....if Hell became the central focus, who knows what to expect (from the Royal Dimension, you could expect insanely powerful Captains that would probably be about Isshin's level in ability or higher).
