No he didn't. He didn't even feel worthy of it as he said himself. He was just desperate to live up to the legacy. If anyone had the ego problem it was Sam and Bucky

​@@CodyMe No, Sam's and Bucky's resentments had nothing to with ego. Walker is an a-hole, who demanded respect from everyone - introducing himself as Captain America everytime, "Do you know who I am?", giving orders to everyone when he stepped into a room, telling Bucky and Sam to stay out of his way. He also showed no respect to Bucky and Sam, calling them wingmen that he wanted to work for him, and calling Bucky by his nickname as if they were friends. Even Zemo showed more decency in calling him James.

@@Stephanie-es7wv This is a dishonest take, as it removes all context. He only pulled the "you bo who I am" thing out of frustration once. While he wasn't an "asshole" to Buck and Falcon first, he was respectful, helpful, ans kind. They were complete jackasses for no good reason and yes it had a lot to do with ego. It was in response to their bullshit that he treated them in kind. He didn't want them to work for him, he just called them the original caps wingman. Silly thing to say, but no disrespect intended. Falcon was just acting like an overly sensitive child at that. Zemo is a mass murderer who used bucky as a way to get revenge. Not someone who's respect is worth anything. Meanwhile Walker was actually on official business while Sam and Buck just did everything they could to insult him and make his job harder for bo good reason. Even having more sympathy for terrorists than for him. It was disturbing

Only after his best friend was killed and two assholes played the riot act immediately

It wasn't there's so no, that'd be dumb

@@CodyMe yes it was they literally fought John while he had it and one sidely beat him

@@doctorleak5312 No it wasn't there's. They don't own Vibrainium anymore than one owns a rock. They beat John because he was outnumbered and they jist blindly attacked him out of nowhere

He wasn't exactly in the best state of mind at that point. No one would be

How many medals of honour did Barnes recieve. And as far as I know, neither he nor Sam have ever jumped on a live grenade. Walker has. By his own logic, Walker is more deserving of the title than either of them.

​@@iainwhite8617 Yea like prior to receiving the shield, Walker went to all of those shits in real battlefield as a regular human without serum accompanied by normal comrades too. And people somehow trying to downplay his ptsd lmao.

I actually get it. Sam didn't feel like he could be Cap. He knew he couldn't live up to the image that Steve presented to the world it was only Bucky who knew that the Steve that tge world saw was just an image not the real man

No, the asshole was Walker. Maybe watch the show again and try to pay attention to everything Walker says and does.

That would change everything

No.

completely true

​@@unnaturaldodoWho did John save in this show? Sam and Bucky stopped the Flagsmashers and saved all of the hostages

Not true at all.

​@@unnaturaldodoNo, not true.

Yeah, but saying that he felt that Steve was a brother to him didn’t feel wrong, didn’t say he was the only brother, just that he like A brother, cause he felt inspired by Steve, Bucky getting angry that someone got so inspired by Steve to the point that John considers Steve a brother just makes him seem like a toxic fanboy who can’t accept when other people look up to the same person he does, that’s like getting mad at someone for considering your friend a hero to them, that isn’t bad, that’s just being inspired by someone you’re attached to (Plus, John didn’t even want to be Captain America, until later in his career when he realized that him being Captain America can save more lives, so he accepts it, cause he feels like other people need him)

Steve would have liked john if he was alive

​@@RajaShaw-rf5dqBut he wouldn't have given him the shield.

@@BlueSkullX Maybe he would have. If you constantly compared him to Steve, Sam wouldn't measure up either. Also, in Captain America 2, Steve outright admiotted that he did some less than savoury things during the war that wasn't featured in the film. If Steve met Walker instead of Sam, he'd recognise the good man, the trauma, and the flaws and help bring out the best in him. He'd teach him that his past as a soldier shouldn't define him, but the good man. Being a good man and a good soldier aren't mutually exlusive, Steve and walker are both. Walker just leans more towards the Good Soldier part, because modern warfare isn't as clean cut as Steve's day, it's all shades of grey where you never really know if you're fighting for the good guys. Also, just a reminder, Steve never saw the ugliness of war until after he became a super soldier. Walker has already seen the ugliness of war and is clearly still traumatised. They aren't so different as you might think.

@@iainwhite8617 No, he wouldn't. Steve would not like the fact that John executed some guy with the shield and got blood all over it. Steve said he did things during the war. That's not the same as John bashing some dude's brains in the middle of town. You can't compare actions in war time compared to what happened in the show. Because even if you did then it still wouldn't be the same since Steve arrested Zola after he was responsible for Bucky being blasted off the train and Steve thought he was dead. He didn't brutally kill Zola with the shield out of revenge and that was his best friend. 🤷 John killed a guy that didn't even kill Lamar. You're assuming and making up headcanon for what Steve would have done for John based on nothing. If Steve was still Captain America then he never would've even met John Walker. Steve was chosen because he was a good man. Not because he was a good soldier because he wasn't. Steve was a skinny kid who didn't have an impressive service record at all and everyone doubted him except for one scientist and Peggy. So, yes being a good man and a good soldier is exclusive. It's not the same. You can be both but being Captain America is not about being the best soldier. It's about already being the symbol of what America should be. Sam was already that when Steve met him because he was helping Veterans adjust to civilian life and working past their PTSD. He even helped Bucky with his trauma. Steve didn't have to mold Sam into being a good fit for the role. But you're talking about how Steve should groom John into it.There's the difference between the two. No one had to mold Steve's personality into a role and no one had to mold Sam either. John trying to be someone he's not to fit the role of Captain America is what made him snap and take the super soldier serum because he didn't think he was good enough and could only compete if he had powers. That was the biggest flaw in his character. He was insecure and didn't learn humility from getting defeated by stronger enemies. He should've worked on himself so he doesn't lose again. Sam didn't take the serum and just relies on his own skills and tech. He even trained with the shield manually without powers and mastered it. John may be a good soldier and maybe even a good person at heart but that doesn't mean he's fit for the role because he represents what America is and not what it should be. Also, you can't compare military service either since Steve has been through more than any Soldier has in the world. Both in the military and as an Avenger and saved the world from universal threats like Thanos, Loki and Ultron on top of military service. I think you're over hyping John way too much to the point where you're actually lowering Steve to his level and trying to make them the same which is weird. Just because John was a good soldier does not automatically mean that Steve would've given him the shield. Especially if he didn't even offer it to Bucky. Steve was friends with Sam long before he even knew he had the Falcon suit.

I think this is true but the reason I dislike Walker is because with some things he really crossed the line. First of all the cold-blooded murder of a man who wasn’t even the one that killed his best friend? But also little things like acting all familiar with Sam and Bucky when they didn’t know each other (because that would piss me off too if someone did that to me irl). And some of the comments he made to Bucky were super out of line (“I’m not like you” “This is all really easy for you isn’t it?”). Like that man is dealing with extreme PTSD and self-loathing, and Walker really wasn’t helping. But yeah Sam and Bucky did act a bit too asshole-y to Walker even if I understand where they were coming from

@@fulcrum097 That man was a terrorist, a living weapon that would've gotten away, if it wasn't for John and he was the reason his best friend died, put you in that situation, you wouldn't do the same? The whole time Walker has been nothing but nice to the both of them only to be treated like trash. Honestly his overqualified to be captain america

​@@fulcrum097in the words of George W Bush, "we don't negotiate with terrorists."

I think we are supposed to get the idea that Bucky is kind of holding back now too.

@@TrappedinSLC He was craving for that fight so nah

His a war veteran so there's that

@@unnaturaldodo and bucky and Steve Rogers aren't war veterans? Pretty sure bucky has more ptsd than walker could ever fathom

@@chadbinette3201He has three metal of honor, which no one else does, he is tested to have peak strengh, speed, edurance and intellegent. Even before he got the serum, he stoop his ground against super soldiers.
