Eobard only knew about Savitar post-Flashpoint. Well they're wrong. There is nothing to suggest he's from the original timeline. The proof is because pre-Flashpoint, Iris was always the one to write the article of0 "Flash vanish in Crisis", it's only after Flashpoint where her name was changed due to Savitar killing her, therefore she didn't die in the original because Savitar didn't exist.
