He would have been for a short time but I don't think he would have been cultivated and refined in WCW the way he was in WWE. WCW's hardon was really more for the fame of those guys you mentioned and not their athletic skill. (Also you left Jay Leno off that list.) The thing about Angle is that he knew damn near nothing about the business when he came in. He was brilliant in his first year in the WWF where he was put through a lot of comedy scenarios but was still capable of looking like a real threat. It was a masterful piece of booking that showcased his raw ability while giving him enough character to make him a draw to those who might not care about such things. I doubt WCW could ever pull off something like that.
Anyways I voted for Jericho because Angle never wore a Lite-brite jacket.
