And if he did,  then how did Barry survive for a hundred years?????? Depending on which version of the Flash comics you read (if you read them), there was at least one version where it turned out that Iris West was really from the future and that Barry eventually traveled to the future with her and had twin children (Don and Dawn). Don married Melanie Thawne and they had Bart Allen. Since this show diverges from the comics in a great many things, what if during the time of red skies Barry traveled forward in time to Eobard's time and somehow caused problems and became his nemesis? In the comic books it was Eobard who traveled back in time because he was obsessed with The Flash and idolized Barry but when he went back he discovered that he was Barry's nemesis (not sure how that happened) and went nuts. He had serious mental issues-- I mean, this is a guy who killed his own parents, went back in time to prevent his brother from being born, and when he was rejected by Rose (a reporter he was infatuated with) he went back to when she was 5 years old and shook the daylights out of her and gave her such severe brain damage that she was pretty much catatonic and never got to be a reporter. My guess is Borderline Personality Disorder of some sort.
