I just love the fact that Peggy is a goddamned brawler canonically

She’s not a martial arts master like Natasha, she doesn’t have powers like Wanda

She just fucking hits people as hard as she fucking can

YES - and it’s consistent from the first time we see her in CATFA. She uses her environment and the tools to hand, she moves with confidence, and she fucking commits.

There’s a great character beat of hers that was in the CATFA script, but didn’t make it into the movie. As she’s telling Hodge to put his foot forward, she asks, “Are you familiar with the art of Jiu Jitsu?” When Hodge says no, she pastes him in the nose, then remarks, “Neither am I.”

The “commits” thing is probably why Hayley is accidentally connecting solidly with all the stunt people! Also falling out of trees. Er. Maybe it’s part commitment, part klutz. I can relate.
