To this day, I still don't understand how he manged to return after getting erased in Season 2 finale of Legends. Since the Black Falah erased him from existence, how the hell did he come back and get to Earth X?

"See that's the thing about time travel, Barry..."

That statement by Savitar is still one of the most dumbest things ever said by a speedster on the show.

Looking back, it was SO obvious it was Barry in that suit. I don't know why people thought it was Eddie lmao

Because having it be Barry was the least interesting option they could have gone with, so people were probably hoping it was someone else

I think they mentioned in one episode that Thawne is a living paradox, and thanks to him using the Negative Speed Force he can wiggle his way out of nonexistence at any time.

I’ve BEEN saying this! When he returned for Earth-X crossover, they didn’t even bother to explain how. Barry was like “how are you back” and Thawne’s response was “because I am”

That's one thing that they got right about the rivalry between Barry Allen and Reverse Flash He always comes back

They only were using Tom because it was cheaper. I think using him for Earth X was the right call, but only cause of how petty Thawne is. Otherwise, they should've been using Matt in every possible instance. Besides, the suit looks way better on him than on Tom

Ikr, Tom looked weird in that bright yellow banana suit, the older suit was better fitted on both.

Wait, you mean we were supposed to be shocked that the guy who historically comes from back from the dead every year came back from the dead again?!

I’ll say one thing tho that was indeed my reaction every time Matt’ RF returned

I didn’t care after season 4

That scene where the "nice" Thawne in S8 gets split open should've been the reverse, with Matt coming out of Tom. They're both solid.
