I think there is a difference to the CreationStory, CreationMyth, and this.

In CreationStory, the creation are there for background
In CreationMyth, the story is of the deliberate act of creation.
In this, it's almost the punch line in two flavors.

Either the events of the Big Bang are the result of the climax of the story's events... that is, to stop the BigBad, the heroes must induce the Big Bang or a similar event OR the origin of the Big Bang was an accident and was never intended as anything important or meaningful by the person who caused the event to happen (they may be unaware of it entirely).

I think that the phlembotomy is too narrow as one example is God lighting his fart, so I think a good rename would either be OutWithABigBang (as this is normally an ending trope) OR MundaneBigBang as the event is [[ForMeItWasATuesday Tuesday]] for the person or persons who caused it.

Could do a general lump of "GagCreation" where the creation myth is played off for humor or historical Injoke, thus allowing for FarSide jokes where God created snakes by rolling Play-do into ropes during a moment of Divine WritersBlock.
