There are SO many examples that come to mind...but I'll just list a few.
Kane's Burned Face: It was burned on the night he took off his mask...but the next week his face was fine.
Cross dressing Stevie: After several weeks of speculation, the cross-dresser that was helping Victoria was revealed to be Steven Richards. Soon after Richards went back to normal without much of an explanation.
Ninja Tori: Back when Raven was WWF Hardcore champ, he had a mysterio ninja dressed in black who helped him. After weeks of antipation the ninja was finally on masked (on heat) and revealed to be Tori. The very next day Tori left.
Sheldon's "Debut": When Heyman introduced team Angle. Sheldon Benjamin was said to be making his WWE debut. Yet Sheldon had been wrestilng on Heat for several months before he went to Smackdown.

A while back Bischoff and Stephanie McMahon kissed, and no I'm not talking about the Linda kiss, he kissed Stephanie. They had something about it in a recap, then...nothing, like they pretended nothing happened.

Yeah...that irritated me..
RTC wasn't a bad group....it was just after the whole Kat incident...it made no sense to keep them around..
K Kwik and Road Dogg in WWE wearing hip hop clothes...I think Edge said it best:
"Nice clothes guys...what are you 7?"
nWo 2002 was pretty bad...it didn't start out that way, but when it consisted of Xpac and Big Show being the only 2 people in the group compete...
Mr. America....it ate up so much TV time...yeah I'm glad it got dropped..
Angle as GM....kind of sad to see Kurt in a non-wrestling role...glad this didn't last
Stuttering Goldust...this angle s..s..s..sucked

I'm personally glad they dropped the gimmick where Molly Holly was considered to be a heel because she wouldn't prance around in a bikini and shove her arse into pies. Then again, to lose that, they had to lose Molly. Damn.
I'm also glad they decided to drop the Mr. America angle. Although in a very anti-climatic way.
"SEE! SEE! It IS Hulk Hogan! He's fired!"
Did Michael Cole say anything to that? Like.. "Oh my God! It IS Hulk Hogan! Right underneath our noses! I hadn't the faintest iDEA!" And NOT being sarcastic?

Chyna-Kat/Dom-Sub Lost In Cleveland Road Dogg & K-Kwik (granted, that wasn't really a case of under rug swept so much as RD peeing dirty) Necrophilia X-Factor - One fifth the DX with none of the interest Jim Cornette's NWA Invasion - Bodacious Bart? Bombastic Bob? Fizzled out like a popcorn f***, thank goodness. NWO 200*

Iran Sheik/Sgt. Slaughter 2000 fued. Sheik beat the Sarge in the famed Gimmick Battle Royal, and Slaughter was pissed. He got back into the ring and put the Sheik into the deadly noogie of doom clutch. It looked like it was about to be 1991 all over again, but it was never discussed again.

Nothing. I absolutely hate loose ends, so I'd much rather they end things properly.
Oh, and Heel Austin in 2001 was a fantastic move, for the record. It made Austin entertaining.
