Robert E. O. Speedwagon (ロバート・E・O・スピードワゴン, Robāto Ī Ō Supīdowagon) was confirmed as a playable character alongside Mariah, Pet Shop, and Diego Brando during the Street Date trailer.[1]
His moveset is similar to that of his Eyes of Heaven appearance, with modifications and new aspects added to better fit him in with ASBR's different style of gameplay.
Having voiced Speedwagon since the Phantom Blood anime, Yoji Ueda reprises his role in this game as well. Like other characters with returning voice actors from Eyes of Heaven, voice lines for Speedwagon were either added or re-recorded.
Speedwagon has 950 health and uses the Ogre Street (食屍鬼街, Ōgā Sutorīto) Battle Style, which allows him to fight alongside his friends, Tattoo and Kempo Fighter, with the moves available to him varying based on which ally he has active.

Ogre Street (食屍鬼街)
ON GROUND
Speedwagon switches his active companion between Tattoo and Kempo Fighter (dubbed in-game as "The Asian"), altering his available abilities. Skills involving either can only be performed if they are in a ready position (i.e. behind Speedwagon). As they act separately from him, Tattoo and Kempo Fighter will continue performing their respective skills even if Speedwagon is attacked; Inversely, they themselves can be struck by the opponent directly to interrupt their moves, even if Speedwagon himself isn't hit. Of note is that attacks dealt by them will bypass melee-based counter abilities due to their being independent of Speedwagon.
Speedwagon can quickly switch companions if this ability is chained from This guy reeks! or He smells worse than vomit!, expending half a stock of Heart Heat to do so not unlike Stand users' Quick Stand ON Style ability.
This guy reeks! (こいつはくせえッー！)
+ ON GROUND
Speedwagon shifts forward and delivers a high kick, launching the opponent into the air. A command normal that can chain into Speedwagon's skills.
Attack type: High Damage: 10 + 30 (40)

This mode is automatically activated once Speedwagon falls below 30% health. It increases his attack power, as well as the rate at which the Heart Heat Gauge rises, while also decreasing the rate at which the Guard Gauge drops.
Skills [Tattoo] (コマンド技)
Don't try to bluff, you rich little snot! (ハッタリぬかすなよーーッ、金持ちのアマちゃん！)
+ //ON GROUND
Speedwagon flings his bladed hat straight forward as a projectile, traveling a set distance before it reverses and flies back to him. The hat inflicts multiple hits, and can even strike an opponent as it returns. However, if Speedwagon is struck by the opponent, the hat will return harmlessly. The hat's maximum range and number of hits increases in order, but its flight speed is inversely affected. (Flash Cancel comboable)
Attack type: High Damage: 33 / 54 / 76
That does it! (これで決着よ)
+ //ON GROUND WHEN DOWNED
Speedwagon pulls out his sledgehammer and smashes down with it in a downwards swing, bouncing the opponent off the ground. This attack deals considerable Guard damage.

If Speedwagon is hit during this attack, Tattoo will still continue attacking. This skill cannot be Flash-Canceled.
Speedwagon orders Tattoo to leap upwards and come down in a diving stab, functioning as an anti-air attack. This attack leaves the opponent in a crumpled state and vulnerable to attack upon connecting. Tattoo's travel distance increases in order. If Speedwagon is hit during this attack, Tattoo will still continue attacking, making this skill useful as a sort of combo breaker. This skill cannot be Flash-Canceled. (Comboable)

Martial Arts, the Eastern mystery! (東洋の神秘、中国拳法)
+ //ON GROUND
Speedwagon orders Kempo Fighter to move in front of him and deliver a hand strike, staggering the opponent. Depending on the attack button inputted, a follow-up combo is then performed upon the attack connecting.
Light (): Kempo Fighter delivers only the initial hand strike, shortening the skill's recovery.
Medium (): Kempo Fighter follows up on the hand strike with a high knee, causing the opponent to crumple to the ground. (Comboable)
Heavy (): Kempo Fighter delivers the high knee then follows up on it with a roundhouse kick, finishing the combo by knocking the opponent back. (Comboable)
This skill cannot be Flash-Canceled, but Speedwagon may act again around the time Kempo Fighter delivers the high knee. To note, Kempo Fighter will not perform the follow-up strikes if the first hit misses or is guarded.
Speedwagon orders Kempo Fighter to leap upwards and come down in a diving kick, functioning as an anti-air attack. If it connects, he launches backwards off the opponent and knocks them back a fair distance. Kempo Fighter's travel distance increases in order.

Hand over all you've got! (身ぐるみはいじまいなッ！)
+ 2 ATK Buttons ON GROUND
Readying himself, Speedwagon steps charges forward in a shoulder tackle. If it connects, he orders his companions to attack: Tattoo steps from behind him and shanks the opponent, before the Kempo Fighter flies in from their other side in a dive kick. Speedwagon finishes the team attack with a downwards sledgehammer strike to knock the opponent away.
Attack type: High Damage: 170
“
Get ready! Hand over all you've got! GYAAAAAAAH! Hiyaaa! How do you like that?! (覚悟しなよ！ 身ぐるみはいじまいなッ！ うきゃあああッ！ アチャッーーッ！ こいつでも食らいなッ！)
”
Ha ha! The blade went right to the bone! (刃が骨まで達した音！)
+ 3 ATK Buttons, or ON GROUND
Speedwagon lets out a battle cry as he wields his sledgehammer and swings it forward. If it connects, him and his two companions charge the opponent all at once to knock them down. As they recover, Speedwagon flips and launches his bladed bowler hat, curving along its path to strike them in the abdomen. The hat begins shredding into the opponent before a noise confirms that it's reached bone as their excruciatingly pained face is shown. It finally cuts through its target and flies back to Speedwagon as he catches and dons it.
If Speedwagon misses the initial attack, he puts away the hammer with a meek "Heh heh" (でへへー).
Attack type: High Damage: 382 / 458 / 573 (depending on HH gauge)
“
HOOOOOOOOO! I'll leave this one to you! You're wide open! Ha ha! The blade went right to the bone! You took that head-on! (おおおおおおおッ！！ まかせるぜ！ スキだらけだぜーーッ！！ ハハーーッ！！ 刃が骨まで達した音！ まともにくらったな！)
