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

While I mostly agree, Cap did get tagged twice by the tazer in the gut at the end of the elevator fight. Replace that with a dagger or sword and he's gonna be hurting bad.

Cap has enhanced healing factor. It’s not as good as Wolverine’s but he can still shrug off death blows for normies and recover from stabbing injuries in an hour or so.

He definitely can't recover from stabbing in an hour. After he fought Bucky in Winter Soldier he was in the hospital. He can fight through injuries for awhile (Endgame), but my overall point is that he can and has been tagged by skilled but otherwise normal humans. Here he's unarmed and unarmored, there's no guarantee for success or survival in this situation.
