[edit] Trivia & Theories
- The train yard stage in Street Fighter Alpha is reminiscent of Joe's train yard stage.
- Joe was originally planned to be in Street Fighter Alpha 3 as the "escaped prisoner fighter" but was later replaced by Cody.
- In Final Fight: Streetwise, Kyle faces a Kickboxing fighter in Little Italy's fight club named "Ghost", who sports the same pants and hair style as Joe, leading some to believe that Joe and Ghost are the same person.
- Joe is rumored to have suffered from amnesia much like Abel in Street Fighter IV spawning speculation that Joe and Abel may be the same person. Joe's background setting is a train yard in the US and in Street Fighter IV there is a train yard in Russia. There are no official character specific backgrounds in Street Fighter IV. A theory can be made that if Joe is Abel, he continues to use train yards as a means of transportation regardless of where he ends up in the world.
- The name Joe can be the combination of John Doe, which is commonly used as a placeholder name for a person whose true identity is unknown.
- In Street Fighter RPG, Joe doesn't officially appear. But in fan sites likeStreet Fighter RPG Brazil, Joe has complete stats, background and Special Maneuvers.
