Im currently working on a one-shot and the final boss is a powerful undead warrior king. I'd like him to be sort of a towering Dark Souls style kinda monster so I'm coming here to ask which monster/stat block could I possibly re-skin for this boss cause I'm not smart enough to come up with my own stats.
How about a Helmed Horror? All by itself a 3rd level party should have a chance to beat it, and with it being a one-shot there is no problem with some or even all of them possibly dying.

You could take the Veteran from the NPCs in Monster Manual and give it some template (vampire, wight, etc.), or take a wight and increase HP and damage. The most important things would be undead nature (no food, air, sleep required), some resistance to necrotic damage, sunlight sensitivity and immunity to poison.
