Heck, for all we know Taskmaster is acting on behalf of the UN and is trying to arrest Natasha since this movie is set between Civil War and Infinity War.

Exactly. maybe they'll show up in the first part of the movie but it won't be revealed they're the behind the scenes villain until the last third of the movie.

AIM would be interesting. I don't know as much about their leadership beyond MODOK as I do about Hydra. In a way it's a shame that Baron Von Struker got misused (IMO) in the Avengers films. Someone on his level would be great, even if he was not Russian and was Hydra not AIM.
