Los Boricuas

Los Boricuas was a Hispanic professional wrestling heel stable in the World Wrestling Federation in the late 1990s. The name was derived from a popular nickname for Puerto Rican people, as all the stable's members were from Puerto Rico.

History
The stable was lead by Juan Rivera under his Savio Vega gimmick. The character formed the stable after he was fired from the Nation of Domination. The stable only lasted for roughly a year from June 1997 to October 1998. 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 Jesus), it was briefly mentioned (but not really explained) that the two teams were going separate ways.
