Former WWE Superstar CM Punk recently shared an image of what WrestleMania 30 — which took place April 6, 2014 at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans — was supposed to look like, as of January 20 that year, before Punk quit the company in the beginning of February.

New On Netflix In January 2020 – Best Movies And TV Shows To Watch!
It’s 2020, and there is no better way to spend the new year than burying yourself underneath your blanket and binge-watch Netflix all day long. However, every month, the streaming service puts out a ton of new content, and there are a lot of movies, TV shows, and originals headed your way in January, so what should you watch and what’s the best to check out? GameSpot has you covered, and we have a few recommendations for you, which you can see in the video above.
On January 1, Netflix dropped plenty of movies for you to enjoy. You can watch the classic John Hughes coming-of-age comedy Ferris Bueller’s Day Off and debate for yourself whether or not Ferris is real or just a manifestation of what Cameron wants to be in life. Also arriving that day are Inception and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie.
If you’re into vampires, check out Dracula on January 4. It’s from the creators of Sherlock, Mark Gatiss and Steven Moffat, and it’s a three-part mini-series starring Claes Bang as the legendary vampire. Inspired by Bram Stoker’s classic novel, this series promises new adventures that “flesh out Dracula’s gory crimes” and make him a more vulnerable character.
On January 31, BoJack Horseman comes to an end with Season 6B. BoJack has been at his lowest point in the series, and he is struggling to get clean. After a stint in rehab, he’s forced to confront the mistakes he made. While that all sounds super-depressing, BoJack is one of the most consistently hilarious shows on television, and it’s a bummer to see it go.

Valve’s Canceled Portal Prequel Revealed
With Half-Life: Alyx officially made public, Valve seems to be getting more comfortable with reveals. The company has given permission to an indie studio to show a behind-the-scenes look at F-Stop, the Portal prequel that never saw the light of day.
F-Stop was a nonviolent puzzle game with DNA similar to Portal. The entire game–led by a Valve producer named Joshua Weier who worked on Portal and Portal 2–was centered around the “Aperture Camera,” an item that could copy, paste, and rescale items in the game’s world. Unfortunately, as revealed in a 2011 interactive book titled The Final Hours of Portal 2, Valve put an indefinite hold on the project after workshopping it for a while.
LunchHouse Software, an indie studio currently working on its own physics-based puzzler titled Punt, is only now, almost a decade later, giving us a look inside what Valve had been planning. With Valve’s permission and access to the F-Stop’s official source code, Lunch House has peeled back F-Stop’s curtain through a brand-new docuseries called Exposure. The first episode, while short, can be seen below. LunchHouse said more episodes are to come.
The studio said Exposure, which will document F-Stop’s various mechanics as Valve developed via the original source code, is “not based on speculation or hearsay.” The first episode only shows the “base mechanics” of F-Stop, but the team at LunchHouse is excited to “[share] more with you all in the near future.”
