There is so much untapped potential in Sam Wilson’s character as a non-superpowered, mostly normal guy who’s just kind of a huge adrenaline junkie.
Like, that man joined the Air Force and instead of flying the planes like a normal person, he chose to jump out of them wearing experimental bird gear. And yeah, he gave that up to become a social worker because he’s a deeply good human being, but he sure leapt at the first opportunity to put his bird gear back on. And it was totally because Captain America needed him. No other reason.
All I’m saying is that Sam was clearly the right successor to Steve; he may not have the serum, but he’s got a little glint of crazy in his eye, which is arguably more important.
