Why Didn't Other Heroes Come To King T'Challa's Funeral In Wakanda Forever
Every time something big happens in the MCU, it is always this question pops up: Where are the Avengers? For seasoned followers, the answer is clear: somewhere else. It makes sense for people unfamiliar with the idea to ponder where other heroes may be. Although Wakanda Forever doesn't go into detail, it is easy to see why the Avengers didn't attend T'Challa's funeral. The main explanation is that, at least officially, there aren't any Avengers at the moment. What's more, individuals who spent the most time with T'Challa have vanished from the face of the earth.
Natasha Romanoff and T'Challa originally became close in Captain America: Civil War, but both of them have since passed away, as have Iron Man and Vision, two other pro-registration superheroes. Only War Machine and Spider-Man are left of that bunch. After the incidents of Spider-Man: No Way Home, poor Peter couldn't afford a flight ticket to Wakanda, even if people recognized his identity.
War Machine wouldn't be accepted at the ceremony as an agent of the same U.S. government that is attempting to attack Wakanda for its Vibranium supply. In Avengers: Infinity War, T'Challa helped his fellow heroes mend some fences and even used Wakanda's abundant resources to fight off Thanos' armies as Shuri attempted to take the Mind Stone from Vision. But once more, almost all of the warriors that battled with Wakanda have been rendered inactive. Steve Rogers is still alive but quite old. Thor, who barely arrived for the final fight, and the Guardians are both in outer space. Although the precise timing for Wakanda Forever is rather hazy, it's plausible that T'Challa's ceremony took place as Bruce Banner was returning to Sakaar.
Wanda Maximoff spent the majority of her time with Shuri in the lab, but if she weren't abducting a town, on the loose, or dead, she would certainly be welcomed. Captain America still serves the United States, even though Sam Wilson will be a far different version of the character than his nation wants, and, like Rhodey, won't be allowed at the ceremony.
Finally, there is Bucky. None of the heroes are as familiar with Wakanda as the Winter Soldier, who stayed there after the Civil War while undergoing psychotherapy. In addition, Bucky bears the Wakandans a responsibility of gratitude for healing him and giving him a mechanical arm despite the fact that he was responsible for King T'Chaka's assassination. He and Sam liberating Zemo is not favored by Wakanda, as we witnessed in The Falcon and the Winter Soldier. Ayo made it obvious that the nation will remember his transgression.
