Depends on how you view prophesy. All the prophecies put together said that on a certain date the heavens would align and Zerstorer would seek his bride (the stick wasn't foretold). If you believe in prophecy as unavoidable, then if Nick and Monroe hadn't gone to the Black Forest some other person with Grimm powers would've been unknowingly backpacking across Europe, fallen into the crypt, found the chest, broke into it, found the stick and been Zerstorer's patsy and the big guy would've come through and after Diana anyway, this time with a fully reassembled staff.
