Okay, everyone slow down before we get off track here.

In terms of why they would exist in the same universe as the Soul King and Yhwach, well...if you're familiar at all with Greek Mythology, then you know that the Gods, especially Zeus, are kind of assholes. My idea is that they really don't care what goes on down below. The Soul Society could be obliterated and they wouldn't give a shit becuase they exist in their own realm. And being Gods, as in the ones that created the universe to begin with, they're exempt from the cycle of reincarnation. That makes sense to me.

Jack, what you have just described here doesn't interact with Bleach-verse at all. "They could care less if Soul Society is destroyed" and the Greek gods being the ones who created the universe.... yeah, no.

Kubo's world is heavily based on Buddhism and Shintoism. He designed it to operate with the Soul Society/Spirit Realm, Hueco Mundo, the Human World, and Hell. We've had allusions to the Animal Realm, but so far that's what we've been shown in canon. That is the world of Bleach. Greek gods having invented the universe... based on all you've seen of canon, do you think that's a logical explanation for how things originally were? There haven't even been any allusions to Greek mythology in Bleach, so it's extremely random to all of a sudden have:

Greek pantheon > All of Bleach canon.

It's one thing to say, invent a separate realm and place your spirit beings (gods) in this realm, it's quite another thing to transpose an entire universe on top of Bleach-verse and then say they're exempt from the reincarnation cycle.

It's one thing to have an Alternate Universe, it's another to have a cross-over. BFF does not allow cross-overs, and while "Greek Mythology" doesn't really count as a separate series, you're treating it as such. If you want to do this Greek stuff as an AU, that's fine... but the characters themselves still need to be Bleach characters. Look at all the races from the series and draw up a list of characteristics that makes these people "Bleach." Right now Hades has none of those characteristics. You need to adapt the fabric of his being (the reason and explanation for why he exists) as well as his powers into "Bleach terms," otherwise it's nothing more than a cross-over.
