if Tony ever actually took Steve on hand-to-hand as he is now, Steve would win.
Yeah, that came across very well in the wrestling scene and I know skill and experience can trump strength and speed, unless there's too much of a difference. It makes sense for Tony to stick to his tech toys; in the circumstances he just doesn't have the time to get up to speed in more conventional fighting. Regarding Erzebet, I just assumed that vampires get stronger and faster as they get older - it didn't occur to me that Steve's difficulties facing her, as opposed to the younger vampires was more a function of her experience.
If you want to be spoiled, however, I'm open to gushing.
I don't have any problems with spoilers, and if you want to gush I'll be happy to provide an audience and try to offer helpful comments/questions if you want them.
