Arkangel de la Muerte (born July 16, 1966) is a luchador enmascarado, or masked professional wrestler, best known for his work in the Mexican professional wrestling promotion Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL). He is often referred to as just Arkangel, and previously worked under the ring name Mister Cid until 1991. His name means "Archangel of Death" in Spanish. Arkangel's real name is not a matter of public record, as is often the case with masked wrestlers in Mexico where their private lives are kept a secret from the wrestling fans. His patronymic and matronymic surnames are known as his brother Antonio Pasilla Dorado has been unmasked and revealed his full name.
The wrestler who would become most known as Arkangel made his professional wrestling debut in 1985, using the ring name "Mr. Cid", an enmascarado (masked) character partially inspired by El Cid, an 11th-century Castilian nobleman. On June 8, 1988, Mr. Cid teamed with Pantera II to win the Naucalpan Tag Team Championship in a tournament final against Convoy and Perverso. The team did not last long, with a storyline break up that led to a feud between the two men. On September 4, 1988, Pantera II defeated Mr. Cid in a Luchas de Apuesta, mask vs. mask match, forcing Mr. Cid to unmask. A week later Pantera II and Carnelo Casas defeated Mr. Cid and Bestia Verde in another Luchas de Apuesta match, this time with Mr. Cid and Bestia Verde having their hair shaved off after the loss. In 1990 Mr. Cid teamed with Canelo Casas to win the Naucalpan Tag Team Championship once more, holding it until 1991.
