Parts of it might very well be true, but I don't believe it's an alternate reality. See, when I first heard about what it was, I assumed it'd be like Disney's The Lion King 1 1/2, a sidequel.

But I realized just a few moments ago... It's listed under the Warzones category, meaning despite all of Deadpool's protests (I'm assuming he's the one "speaking" on the back of the book), it does in fact take place during the 2015 Secret Wars.

And Warzones is the category that's directly impacting the 616 continuity post-Secret Wars (Old Man Logan being in 616, as well as Weirdworld, and Infinity Gauntlet introducing the Death Stone, Singularity finding herself in 616, etc.) So I'm thinking Deadpool's Secret Secret Wars takes place in an unnamed domain in Battleworld, and when Battleworld is destroyed and the Warzones titles affect 616 continuity, Deadpool actually became part of 616's original Secret Wars.

So either way, it's essentially moot since he could've been behind the scenes of the original, and this cements that he is now officially a part of the event regardless of whether or not he was originally. You made me remember that Cullen Bunn, the writer of Deadpool's Secret Secret Wars, said in an interview he was going to address it and link the other stories he wrote together in Deadpool & the Mercs For Money series (if I'm not mistaken). Is that a good thing or bad? lol And I hope my theory is right, then. lol Wait how would there be another Doctor Doom if this was the recent Secret Wars? I think that if the stories will be tied together, it will reveal that Deadpool really was in the '84 Secret Wars, Steve Rogers remembered the whole time, and something comes back to haunt them in Mercs for Money or something. If not, it will be resolved in the actual Deadpool series for sure, because the issue revealed that Deadpool's Secret Secret Wars is, in fact, canon.
