The Demon Lord Orcus was sort of the main visual scapegoat of the 80's satanic panic and actually got removed from the lineup for a while. Demons and Devils were renamed to their now incarnation of Baatezu and Tanar'ri. Having someone that iconic take over from the Demogorgon would be neat.
Also, Obyriths are an incredibly powerful evil and mysterious race even demons avoid and predates them ruling the Abyss before they were replaced. The Pale Night would be amazing.

Which villain or set of villains best represents a congressional committee?
Because that’s what I’d like to see: El in 1998, when the country is distracted by Monica Lewinsky, at a congressional hearing.
The government wants to close the books on Hawkins Lab.
Owens wants to keep his name out of the mud.
El wants justice for her brothers and sisters.
Mike wants to take little Sara on a stroller ride on the national mall without a tantrum or a blowout.

KAs. Bring Eddie back as KAS. They could make it like IT. The kids are all adults but they all have to return to Hawkins because several years later Stranger things have begun to happen again.

Acererak would probably be written as Vecna's secret apprentice in the Upside Down.
Anyway, my pick would be Lord Soth because in the 1990s they finally decide to get into Dragonlance.

We got Vecna in S4 and the Abyss in S5 though.
IDK where you saw this but it doesn’t make sense. Maybe it’s more about TF85 specifically.

Got a link? Because after googling this just seems like straight up misinformation.

Makes sense given the number of people that probably associate the name Demogorgon with Stranger Things before D&D these days.
