The Saitama theory doesn't hold up. Besides the common sense issues, we've already seen that joke used with King. I highly doubt that ONE will reuse that joke for a character that has a good amount of hype behind him (yes, his hype is far larger and more crucial than King's was).

Blast being related to Bomb and Bang sounds more likely. Though, I don't think it'll be Bang or Bomb's son. Blast would need to be more powerful than Bang and Bomb, and the only way a younger guy could surpass them (without any superficial/artificial enhancements) is if he started achieving limiter-removal. Hmm, a younger martial artist achieving limiter removal that is somewhat related/involved with Bang? Why does that sound familiar? Oh, yeah. Ever heard of Garou? So that's been done already. Once again, I highly doubt ONE will reuse a similar major plot idea. Blast would make more sense as Bang/Bomb's master/father/brother or just another martial arts master entirely.

Another theory suggests that Blast might just be a made-up figure by the Hero Association. While possible, it would be a major hype killer.

Blast is supposed to be stronger than Tatsumaki., ONE stated that Tatsumaki could beat a 100% Mob, but against a ???% Mob, it's a different story. Mob ???% would need to be confirmed stronger than Tatsumaki. If OPM is confirmed to be in the same verse as Mob Psycho 100, I guess maybe an older Mob could be Blast.

Blast is most likely a new character. While being somehow related/involved with Bang and Bomb is a cool idea, part of me hopes that Blast has nothing to do with them and is just a fresh character with different powers/abilities. I hope his powers are nuclear-related. Because that sounds badass.
