The loss of Bucky was a defining moment for Captain America, but when Steve and Sam are put in a similar situation, the outcome is very different.
Besides Steve Rogers, both the former Winter Soldier Bucky Barnes and the former Falcon Sam Wilson have taken up the shield to become Captain America, and when Bucky's most tragic moment is recreated, Sam Wilson utilizes it to prove he is worthy of the mantle.
When Steve Rogers temporarily retired from Captain America, Falcon picked up the shield and took up the mantle to honor Cap's legacy. Now that Steve Rogers has returned, there are two Captain Americas in the Marvel Universe, and they both team up in order to stop Arnim Zola from destroying New York City. The Nazi scientist's plan is a classic one using a rocket.
The fact that both Steve and Sam work together, utilizing each of their powers shows how great a team they are. That isn't to say that Bucky and Cap weren't a great team during the war, but the situation was nearly recreated when they were battling Arnim Zola. The fact they both were able to get out of it safely working together, and both under the moniker of Captain America, shows that Sam Wilson is without a doubt deserving of the title.
Another important aspect is the fact that Bucky is no longer Captain America at all. He took up the role when Cap died. But he eventually gave it up and returned to the name of Winter soldier. Sam Wilson gave up the name Falcon to become Captain America, but now that Captain America returned, Sam Wilson hasn't returned to being Falcon. He is still called Captain America and Steve Rogers is perfectly fine with that.
