Super Delfin
In June 1991 Mr. Cid changed ring characters, becoming "Arkangel de la Muerte", a "rudo" (heel or "bad guy") character with religious undertones. As Arkangel, he won the Naucalpan Tag Team Championship for a third time, this time while teaming with Guerrero de la Muerte, who became a regular partner for Arkangel in the following years. The team also held the Distrito Federal Tag Team Championship at some point in the first half of the 1990s. They would also team with El Felino to hold the Distrito Federal Trios Title in 1991, losing the title to "Los Metalicos" (Oro, Plata and Bronce). By the mind 1990s, the "de la Muerte" tag team had broken up, as Arkangel decided to focus on singles competition instead. On September 25, 1998, Arkangel defeated El Torero for the Mexican National Welterweight Championship, bringing the title back to Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) for the first time in five years. Over the next 178 days, Arkangel successfully defended the title against Máscara Mágica, El Torero, Astro Rey Jr. and Pantera before losing the title to Astro Rey Jr. on March 22, 1999. Five months later, Arkangel won the CMLL World Welterweight Championship from Super Delfin on a show in Kawasaki, Japan. Arkangel defended the title several times, both in Mexico and Japan before losing the belt to Nosawa in January 2001, ending his title reign after at least 875 days.
