This is just a wild guess which isn't based on much solid evidence.

But I think that the black ooze could have something to do eith the upcoming champion, Thresh. They did mention that Thresh runs around collecting souls and actually targets specific people. Maybe he chose to claim Nautilus's soul and set up a very elaborate trap for him knowing he might be the only one to go down in the ooze. Whether it went as Thresh had planned is very hard to say.

Furthermore, Thresh has unique quotes when he hooks Nautilus (Though this could just be due to the similar nature of their ability kits) as well as a deep sea skin (May not be so indicative though) which could be hinting at an actual relation to Nautilus.

As mentioned earlier, this is just a theory.
