Having been off TV for months, Ríos started accepting Japanese bookings in 2001. Ríos lapsed into obscurity by late 2000 but did have a brief feud with Kurt Angle that culminated in a main event match on Sunday Night Heat before once again only making occasional appearances. It was there that the Hardy Boyz came to Lita's rescue and feuded with him briefly, with Lita becoming their protégé. Ríos' partnership with Lita ended sometime later after an angry Ríos attacked Lita because he had lost a match. He and Lita had a feud with Eddie Guerrero and Chyna which led to a European title match between Ríos and then-champion Guerrero at Backlash 2000, which Ríos lost. During his time as Essa Ríos, he was managed by Lita who would often repeat Ríos's finishing moves on wrestlers he had just beaten after a match. His reign was a short-lived one, as he would lose the title to Dean Malenko a few weeks later.
He had a high-flying match with Michinoku during Extreme Championship Wrestling's 1999 Cyberslam event before capturing the WWF Light Heavyweight title from Gillberg on his 'debut' as Essa Ríos during Februedition of Sunday Night Heat. This period included a match with Taka Michinoku at WrestleMania XIV for the Light Heavyweight Championship.
