10NL: What did villain have?

This is definitely one of the better lines I've taken lately. GTO+, this site, and volume is coming together. I played for 61 minutes, mainly cold calling in late position and folding, not having many opportunities to OR or play back postflop. The table was loose/aggressive so I continued to wait for a big hand and then flopped top set (888) vs an UTG OR with bb having called, as well.

What do you put villain on? The flop doesn't hit his range at all and I have to think that AQ is the likely holding here. He would definitely call bb's flop bet with those two overcards and then his turn bet would definitely indicate TPTK. The x/r by me should alert him to a set but it's certainly reasonable for him to call there. On the river, my shove could easily look like a busted flush to villain but I would think 88, 22, and 44 would look pretty obvious by now. When he calls the shove on that board, I have to again think this is AQ that just refused to fold.

I'm trying to advance my thought process through hands and not just on pots that I lost or played poorly. I think it's good for me to analyze spots like this, too so I can better identify opportunities to target weaker ranges that get sticky postflop.
