Excuse me? Angle? Awesome? Sorry, but those words go together like oil and water.
The only thing Angle has going for him is his gold medal. Whoopdie-doo! There were a crapload o f other olympic gold medal-winning wrestlers prior to him (one every four years since 1896, the year the Olympic games returned), and there will be a bunch more afterwards. Kurt Angle is nothing special.
Besides, he's had absolutely no buildup to his Slammiversery win, nor did he have any buildup to his first WWE Championship (which was also less than a year into his contract, may I add. Again, TNA is trying to beat WWE at their own game). The only good TNA matches (and I mean the ONLY ones) he's had were 1 on 1 with Joe (the King of the Mountain match was good, but that was more due to the other four wrestlers than Angle).
And to top it all off, if you ever met him in real life (as I did once), you'd know he's not the cocky ass that you see on TV; he's worse. He has the same kind of self-absorbed "better-than-you" attitude you'd expect out of Paris Hilton or Brittney Spears. Just the way he looks at you says "When are you going to get on all fours so I can releive myself on you?"
