Debating on the 8700 or 9700k paired with a 2080. The 8700 will probably be better for cooling...definately passing on the 9900k. Any suggestions?

Unless you have a 8700k or 8086k lying around that you can swap in once you get it, then my vote is the 9700k.

IF, you have an 8700K or 8086K, then go with 8700 to save some bucks.
IF not, definitely go with the 9700K.
The truth is even an 8700 is sufficient for gaming etc... going 9900K can bring more con's than pro's with its heat and wasted potential.
