So do we think this version of RF is professor zoom?

I'm not 100% sure yet. I think it is obvious that the showrunners have wanted the comic fans to tie Eddie Thawne to Eobard Thawne (who is Professor Zoom for the non-comic folks), but why is the major question. And it is now obvious that Wells is one of the Reverse Flashes. So is Wells actually Eobard and Eddie his ancestor? Are there actually two completely different Reverse Flashes on the show (say Eobard Thawne & Hunter Zolomon)? Who knows at this point.

What we do know is that Wells is a Reverse Flash. We also know that there were two Reverse Flashes in the same room with one beating the crap out of Wells. Was that future Wells and present Wells, or was that two totally different people, we don't know yet. Also the other RF stole the tachyon device and apparently either gave it to Wells or Wells stole it from him.

While they let us in on Wells' secret of being a RF pretty early in the series, I think there are still a lot of unanswered questions that play a huge role in the whole Reverse Flash storyline.
