Well like I was saying, it's the fact that the minds of those involved were altered. Much like when Reed uses the Cosmic Cube to erase everyone's memories of events that happened in Fantastic Four: World's Greatest Comics Magazine Vol 1 or when Mephisto altered reality at the end of One More Day so that Peter and Mary Jane were no longer married.

I would say that its a case of both versions of the events did and did not exist. To everyone else but Deadpool they happened as they originally remembered them, for Deadpool he remembers what actually happened.

When you're dealing with the Beyonder and anything is possible I think that is likely the case. Also maybe everyone's fondest wish was to remember the Secret Wars without Deadpool being there.

His joining Cap at the end when facing Doctor Doom is straight out of the original Secret Wars, the only difference being that Deadpool was also there and he interacts with the Beyonder.

Going over it again, I think maybe it's more of a "One More Day" sort of scenario. The Secret Wars as it originally happened involved Deadpool, but after all the things that went down Deadpool "wished" him out of the event, and so reality was altered so that he wasn't involved. That would make the most sense if it is part of continuity.
