The Flash Season 3 Premiere: 10 Big Questions We're Asking After 'Flashpoint'

8. Will Wally Get Speedster Powers Again?

The Flash Flashpoint Questions
The CW

After a bit of a will he/won't he in terms of getting powers last year, Season 3 wastes no time in giving Wally West speedster abilities. In Flashpoint, he doesn't just become a speedster, but is well-established as one, serving as Central City's hero (Kid) Flash.

Why do they call him Kid Flash if there's no actual Flash? Because he's young? But his identity is a secret? Anyway...

Wally only gets one episode as (Kid) Flash, before things are put right. Is that the end of him being a speedster? It'd be a bit of a surprise, given the character from the comics, so could there be some way of him getting powers again?
