So Where Does the Story Go From Here?
Yellowstone manages to do a stellar job of lining up a villain each season and then setting the Dutton family loose on them.
In Season Three, that was Market Equities and the threat of losing the ranch to this giant conglomerate looking to build an airport. That story is decidedly unfinished.
With Beth, Kayce, and John's fate seemingly hanging in the balance because of bombs and assault rifles, it seems that we have not seen the last of Roarke and Willa yet.
If the three of them make it out alive—John seems fine, but Beth got blown up and Kayce is behind a desk getting peppered with bullets—Willa and Roarke have some 'splainin' to do.

But the truly intriguing story that we anticipate being fleshed out in Season Four is this ever-present standoff between the indigenous people of Montana and the Dutton family.
Monica stands to be a big part of that discussion, and this season teased her as a leader of the cause. That should cause quite a stir between her and Kayce.
Also, it may be a little too soon, but a Rip and Beth wedding could be on the horizon.
Since he nabbed his dead mother's wedding ring off of her years-old-decayed hand, he wants to make the move. However, who knows about that situation now. Cowboy boots and dancing music seems like a great visual, but this is also Yellowstone, and a bonafide wedding—especially for two people with such troubled lives—seems like a perfect setting for some kind of disaster or drama. And there's always a new threat on the horizon.
