I'd be up for that
I genuinely believe this will happen. "Zio" (albeit pronounced more like ツィオ) is Italian for uncle. I feel like there must be a reason why they specifically went for that spelling instead of the more obvious Ji-O.

Zi-O in English also almost looks like the number twenty.

Honestly, as bad as it sounds, i think it is WAY more likely that "z's are cool" or "it looks kinda like 20" would be Toei's thought pattern rather than an actual plot related reason given how much of this season has progressed.

Oh, definitely. It's almost certainly the 20 thing. But on the other hand, in the preview for episode 41,
Spoiler
we have Oma Zi-O saying someone has changed the flow of time while a clip of Uncle Whatshisface plays.

I knew Uncle-san is up to something! Maybe he's a timelord or a timekeeper, or even Oma Zi-O in disguise? Since a few times in the series Oma Zi-O is referred to as an "old geezer".

Since the "uncle character" in Build turns out to be main villain Evolto in hiding, maybe Uncle-san is also evil.

Hey I called the "Zi-O is 20" alphabetical overlay to numerical right from the start, it was something that just screamed "Toei nonsense" :P

And to the uncle, only because Zi-O is literally hijacking all of Decade's tropes and the bit with Natsumi's grandfather becoming Professor Shinigami was a thing there, so it wouldn't surprise me if they pushed that even further and made it a "It was I, Dio!" moment.

It could be the Uncle..or maybe what if it was Schwartz all along? Could be another Timejacker or Oma Zi-O is just Another Decade/Another Tsukasa.
