I was thinking about this the other day... my proposed transition for Killmonger... I don't normal dabble into fan fiction, but this one I think makes some sense..
He never actually died, they put him in stasis while they figured out his fix and then were able to bring him out and back to life.
A massive threat faces Wakanda, potentially wiping out their culture and they are desperate, so they thaw Killmonger out as he still possesses the powers of the Black Panther due to ingesting the plant.
He's still upset, he's pissed off that Wakanda "betrayed" him and doesn't see his vision. He says that as long as T'Challa is king, he will never be able to exist in the kingdom of Wakanda due to their conflicting visions.
He ends it by telling them to just let him die.
Then they explain to him that T'Challa is dead, however he did die.. and that he had actually named him as his heir to the throne, knowing that there is good in him. Erik is now reeling, questioning his own vision and rocked by the news of his cousins death and the trust he placed in him. At this point he still denies the mantle and states he won't ever fight for this Wakanda.. but it's clear that he is actually torn. So he sits in a prison cell as they turn to face the threat.
The movie culminates with this massive threat on the verge of wiping Wakanda out, maybe over top of the family of T'Challa, mocking them, then bam music blares and Erik jumps out in full Black Panther costume and saves the day.
Embracing the mantle of Black Panther as his cousin and equal envisioned it.
