The vacancies in the Satans and Top 10 in the Rating Games are probably also going to cause some problems too. Right now its seems okay, but the purebloods aren't going to probably like how more and more of the reincarnated devils are appearing in the Rating Games. Also, depending on who wins the Azazel Cup, this could be a big problem. Rudiger is pretty much #2 and Tannin is probably not close behind. What's more, with three of the four Satans gone, there are vacancies to fill, and people like Rudiger would be in line, so that may cause some problems down the line. We know for a factor there are seven Satans in the future, and Sirzechs and co. are still sealed, so chances are some of the new Satan Candidates are going to be coming out of this tournament.

Also, I feel the war with Shiva and Indra is going to happen regardless of whether Indra wins ths Azazel Cup or not. Issei will probably side with Shiva to try and end the war quickly, increasing his status even more.

This series might end off on the UL appearing, Hades seems to foreshadow that something is coming, something that God-level beings like himself need to be prepared for. To me, that sounds like the UL.
