 * 1) Regular comics Wally West didn't die before Flashpoint. The stories he was in simply ended, with him as Flash, not Kid Flash (which is a thing Rebirth has yet to explain).
 * 2) Rebirth does not at all correlate to Young Justice. Wally was popular to many people as he was the main and only Flash for roughly 20 years, and he remained popular enough after Barry's return. After Flashpoint, that entire history was discarded in favor of generic Flash and a horribly written Kid Flash/Bart Allen - who, now wasn't even the grandson of Barry anymore - and that didn't sit well with fans. When Wally finally came back, he was such a badly written stereotype that few could related to him the way they could with the old Wally. So DC brought him back.
 * 3) YJ Wally dying has nothing to do with it.
 * 4) Greg Weisman has repeatedly said that he doesn't like the concept of Speed Force, and it doesn't exist in YJ.
 * 5) You're not unique, people have been hoping he's only trapped in the Speed Force since pretty much minutes after it happened. But it's not likely and we may never find out.
