Los Boricuas were a Hispanic professional wrestling stable that originated in the World Wrestling Federation in the late 1990s. The name was derived from a popular nickname for Puerto Rican people, since all the stable's members were from Puerto Rico. Different variants of the team have since performed in the International Wrestling Association, Dominican Wrestling Entertainment, World Wrestling League and the World Wrestling Council.

The stable was led by Juan Rivera under his Savio Vega gimmick. The character formed the stable after he was expelled from the Nation of Domination. The group made its television debut in June 1997. The group featured two second-generation WWF wrestlers. The son of José Miguel Pérez, one half of WWF's first recognized tag team champions, Miguel Perez, Jr. joined after participating in Extreme Championship Wrestling and World Championship Wrestling. José Estrada, Jr. was the son of another former titlist, former WWF Junior Heavyweight Champion José Estrada. Jesús "Huracán" Castillo was a second-generation wrestler himself. They were mainly involved in angles with other stables including the Nation of Domination and the Disciples of Apocalypse. During WrestleMania XIV's tag team Battle Royal, Los Boricuas engaged two teams (Savio and Miguel, and José and Jesús), fighting on Raw is War. Vega left the group in July, and would return to a singles career before being released later that summer. Castillo still a team member, became a jobber on Shotgun. Perez, Castillo, & Estrada would still fight as a tag team on Raw and Shotgun until October 1998 and compete on WWF SuperAstros until the show ended in August 1999 and all three of them left the company.
