This is probably a dumber reason as to why he'll be the main antagonist, but along with everything else that everyone's already said, the (possible) duality between Soft & Wet and Speed King is an interesting and unique one if you think about it. Josuke is in a Sailor outfit and his Stand, called Soft & Wet, controls bubbles, which are all things associated with water. In contrast, Speed King represents fire (obviously). Besides its heat-based abilities, fire is often associated with intensity and destruction, which could reference the extremely brutal and grusome ways it's able to harm and kill others, even by JoJo standards (which says A LOT). Speed and fire are also sometimes associated together, which could explain it's name.

I know a Water v.s. Fire duality is a hell of a lot less thematically meaningful than what we've had in the past, but it is a nice asthetic, and has obviously never been done in JoJo before.
