Gothel not being the final villain was pretty obvious, cancellation or not, it's not a surprise. In each season finale, the Disney villain of the season is never the ultimate opposent (we can't finish the show on a random Disney villain in case of cancellation). The show has always worked like that.

Maybe they will face a big hurdle without a real big bad like the 2-3-4 seasons finales, or maybe there will be a great demonic entity invoked by the Coven of the Eight, or the friends of the other side... Don't really know, time will tell.
