The ECW Originals were a professional wrestling stable that has made appearances in various wrestling promotions, such as Total Nonstop Action Wrestling, and most famously WWE.

The name of the stable derives from their affiliation with the original independent Extreme Championship Wrestling promotion, with "ECW Originals" being wrestlers who first came to prominence during the first ECW's run. Members of the ECW Originals faction have held the ECW World Heavyweight Championship, Television Championship, and World Tag Team Championship during their tenure with the original company.

In July 2010, the group debuted in Total Nonstop Action Wrestling under the name EV 2.0 (EV being an abbreviation for Extreme Violence or Extreme Version). However, the ECW Originals reunion was implied and never billed, due to WWE owning ECW trademarks and other properties.

When World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) revived ECW as a third brand, they did so by having a number of wrestlers from the original promotion appear on the June 5, 2006 Raw to attack WWE Champion John Cena. From there, the new ECW was given its own weekly show, with the tagline "A New Breed Unleashed" appearing in TV advertising, on the Sci Fi Channel.

One of the first feuds on the brand pitted Mike Knox and Test against The Sandman and Tommy Dreamer.
