I mean, Metal Hero was a retroactive term. All those shows weren't originally made to be part of the same franchise in the first place (although they shared production staff and timeslot).
Although, generally, you can say the defining factor were the full body metal suits. Even that had exceptions like Blue Swat and Jiraya. But it's the closest element you have to something unique and consistent. Even modern Rider rarely looks heavily armored like Metal Heroes did.
Also, Metal Heroes was still running for a decade after Black RX and it never incorporated form changes. That's really a Rider thing in the end rather than Black RX being like a Metal Hero show.
