2M > 5H > 2H xx 623M, j.5H jc. j.5H xx 214M, 214H, land, 5H > 5S sjc. j.5M > j.5M > j.5H jc. j.5M > j.5H jc. j.5M > j.5H > j.5S, land, j.2369XX (560,000 damage for 1 bar, builds 1 bar).
Joe's standard combo route, works off just about anything that confirms into 623M, including doing it raw. The j.5H link after 623M is quite tight, as is the 5H link after 214H. You can make the combo slightly easier at the cost of damage by substituting j.5M and 5M for those attacks, respectively.
6M xx 623XX, sjc. j.5L > j.5H xx j.214M, j.214M, j.214H xx 623XX sjc. j.5H jc. j.5H jc. j.5H > j.5S (574,000 for 2 bar)
Use Mach Speed to confirm off an overhead. Can also be used off any early Mach Speed hit (including using it as a reversal), although the double Red Hot Kick extension only works in the corner. Delay each Red Hot Kick as long as possible to give the opponent time to drop and set up a relaunch.
