Clearly, Wells-X just made too much sense for the writers, it had to be Thawne with no explanation. User:Тостер suggested to me that it may be Mallus's resurrection, while I personally think that Caitlin may have killed the Black Flash that was supposed to kill Thawne, and thus, while Black Flash is regenerating, the timeline of him hunting Thawne went in flux, resurrecting Thawne again.

Damn, this is so stupid. Anyway, for everyone still trying to make sense of it, this is a version of Thawne that has visited World War II and saw Hitler with his own eyes, so it's probably a post-LOT Thawne. He's also referring to "being killed by Barry all those times", but it's, what, two times right now, neither of which done by Barry, right? And his personality is all over the place. So, this may be a Thawne from a far away future, resurrected by yet unknown means. Then again, we haven't seen Thawne's first version of fighting against the Legends, which he referred to and which were prevented when he killed Rex Tyler too early. So, there is a LOT to Thawne that we haven't seen yet.
