Paired together for the interviews were Rhodes and Schulz. Towards the end of the chat, JOE mentioned the comedian's casting in the upcoming film Miami Vice '85.

You can read a transcription of the interaction in full below:

JOE: That's my time. I have to wrap up. But thank you so much for speaking to me. Congratulations on Street Fighter. I also want to say, Andrew, I'm very excited for Miami Vice [85].

Andrew Schulz: Oh, thank you, man.

Cody Rhodes: Miami Vice, baby!

Street Fighter is in cinemas now.
