Like they go "oh this character is actually your long lost relative that you never knew about" It could go a different way if they decided to introduce Barry's Twin Brother. Remember Barry wouldn't have known as they were separated and apparently the mother didn't even know and this doctor gave the Baby to the thawnes. And if his Twin existed in the same universe. The Twin wouldn't know Barry is the Flash. So alot can happen other than just "This is a relative you knew nothing about" It can get more complicated than that. And Eddie coming back for revenge as Colbalt Blue instead of using Barry's actual brother would not sense because 1. There's no way Eddie can come back because he's dead 2. Even if he did somehow, why would he try to get vengeance on Barry? They were friends and he was sacrificed himself to save him in the first place to stop Reverse Flash Eddie doesn't have kid he was raising though.
