A Twitter user also wrote that Sam Wilson is best as Falcon, as he is not having the serum of a super soldier like Captain America. Another user even tweeted that it is better to promote Sam as General Eagle rather than making him Captain America. Even Captain Falcon sounds like a cooler title too, with that regard.Add ET Logo as a Reliable and Trusted News SourceGoogle Logo Add Now!
