In an altered timeline, Wally West became The Flash.

History

When the Flash went back in time to save his mother from the Reverse Flash, he created a new timeline of events from that point known as "Flashpoint".

In this timeline, Wally's car was struck by lightning after running a special racing chemical in the engine, causing him to gain super speed. Wanting to become a hero, Wally became the new super hero known as "the Flash" and protected Central City with the help of his sister and his father.

Wally's greatest enemy was an evil speedster named the Rival who tormented Central City. With Barry Allen's help, (the Flash of the previous reality), the Flash and "Kid Flash" tracked down the Rival and began fighting him. With his guard down, Wally was stabbed in the back by the Rival. Defeating him again, the Rival was soon killed when he was shot in the back by Joe West.

While Wally was left in critical condition back at S.T.A.R. Labs, Barry went back in time again to allow the Reverse Flash to kill his mother in an attempt to put the timeline back to the way it was before, erasing Flashpoint and this version of Wally from existence.
