I think the best contender for Smackdown's top heel is John Cena. Sure, he's recieving some of the biggest pops of anyone in the company, but that's the beauty of it: the fans love him so much that they'll hate him even more when he turns heel. Just like Hulk Hogan during the whole nWo turn (although Cena's turn obviously won't be as impactful).
The scenario would be simple. Eddie continues to feud with Bradshaw, and JBL brings in a partner (maybe a return for Farooq?) to help him in his beatings of Eddie Guerrero on SD! So who comes to his rescue? John Cena! Then, at the Great American Bash, Eddie wins the match, but Farooq and Bradshaw beat down on him. Cena comes running to the ring and the two Acolytes scatter. Cena helps Eddie to his feet before, BOOM! F-U right in the middle of the ring. Finish things off with a couple of belt shots to the head of Guerrero, and maybe even the Five Knuckle Shuffle for a little more heat. The Cena turn would be phenomenal, and would really escalate John into main event status.

That's a good scenario, but Cena would make Eddie look weak considering how stale his gimmick is, and how bland his wrestling has been lately.
The most logical choice is RVD, him and Eddie would put on some excellent matches to make up for the lousyness of everything else, and give RVD the push he's deserved for a long time, without him necessarily winning the title.
