It has been only one issue of All-New Captain America. He appeared so far in only one issue of the Avengers (as a side-character), and 90% of his appearance in AXIS it was him inverted, not the actual Sam Wilson.

What would it be even more different than with Bucky? Before he became Captain America, Bucky was an assassin, who had been up to recent times used as a weapon. And before that, he was Captain America's sidekick, not a leader. Sam was even the leader of his own S.H.I.E.L.D. team.

And the shield is not extremely heavy. Other people with no super strenght have been able to perfectly wield it, including Hawkeye or regular people.
