Battle An unarmed Captain America (MCU) replaces Robb Stark at the Red Wedding - can he fight his way out?

Cap doesn't have his shield or suit, and he doesn't know that the betrayal is coming. The Freys are not aware of his upgraded abilities.

Can Cap fight his way out? Bonus points if he can keep Catelyn and Robb's wife safe. Double bonus points if he can kill Walder Frey and Roose Bolton.

While I agree with you that monks catching arrows is probably just a DnD thing this regular australian guy can catch arrows. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X5-kR8ttz-k&ab_channel=InTrouble

Yeah, I could buy at a very low draw weight someone can semi-consistently catch an arrow. But a high draw-weight war bow, or a crossbow? No way that's getting caught by a normal person, I doubt they'd even be able to exert enough force with their hands even if they could get the timing right. At best they could have the arrow sticking through their arm instead of their body.

As for captain america though? Sure why not
