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.

Really depends on how shocked the rest of the wedding is from having a dude just start to destroy every trained warrior in there bare handed without breaking a sweat.

If he wanted to any one person in that room is dead, but it’d be harder to defend someone else from every other person.

Think about that elevator scene with Cap and those guys were prepared and ready. There is not a single person in or outside that castle that has any chance of cap is after them, much less preventing him from getting away

I should also note that he won't be bare handed after he defeats the first guy, he'll have whatever weapon that guy had.

Would it be any useful to him? Outside of daggers (if knowledge from knife combat is transferable) and shields he's unlikely to have training with anything they've got.

Even if he's not a good enough swordsman to cut with the edge of a sword, he's still adding a few feet to his reach with essentially a metal baton
