I don't think the No Way Home example was meant to be a reference to the Flashpoint comic. I mean, the word "Flashpoint" existed long before that comic existed. Also, S.T.A.R Labs is from the Superman comics, not the Flash ones. Therefore, the Batman TAS entry doesn't count. Finally, the X-Files entry seems too vague to count as a specific reference to the Flash.

He often wears a shirt with Flash's insignia and has dressed as him in "The Justice League Recombination" and "The Middle Earth Paradigm" (where all four guys accidentally dress as Flash as well). He brags about reading a Flash comic faster than him in "The Cushion Saturation", and acts just like him in "The Workplace Song Nanocluster" after having too much coffee.
** In "The Dependence Transcendence", Sheldon gets high on energy drinks and hallucinates Flash telling him that superheroes use performance enhancing drugs all the time.
