Not even just at the time, just straight up, match was supposed to happen and then it never did at any point.
Got the idea to do this from that time they advertised Orton vs. Strowman for Raw then just didn't do it. The two of them never at any point had a singles match, closest was a triple threat with Drew.

The Demon (Pumpkin King mode) vs Sister Abigail
Still the match I wished I had seen the most. The live thread would have been legendary

Ronda Rousey v Becky Lynch was advertised as the Wrestlemania main event for about a week after the Royal Rumble before they shoehorned Charlotte in.  |

Ronda Rousey v Becky Lynch was advertised as the Wrestlemania main event for about a week after the Royal Rumble before they shoehorned Charlotte in. Something they were very fortunate to do, given Ronda got hurt before the match, anyway, and utterly lost her nerve when the fans turned on her. |

Lesnar vs Mahal has still not technically happened (and given the latter's fall down the card, likely never will).

Wrestlewar 90 advertised Lex Luger vs Steve Williams and Road Warriors vs Skyscrapers. Of course, we all know that Luger replaced Sting in the title match and we never saw Luger take on Williams, while as for the Roadies/Skyscrapers match, it was supposed to be the Callous/Spivey version, but Spivey didnt show up and was replaced with Mike Enos in a mask.

I’m beginning to think Andre the Giant will never win the Royal Rumble like he promised in late 1990

The Tampa Wrestlemania Weekend 2020 indie line up is full of gems that weren't meant to be. Some did happen later on as promoted, some matches had to be altered a bit when they could happen, but one of the last announcements before COVID got everything shut down was this...
We never got Bi-Curious Nick Gage and Jimmy Lloyd at any of the EFFY's Big Gay Brunch events that did happen since.

Has Minoru Suzuki vs Orange Cassidy happened yet? I think that's one of the matches that got scuttled due to the pandemic.

I don’t recall Bulldog/Berzerker happening after WM 8 I know they had a match the year prior at UK Rampage 91 and they had a msg match in early 92 but I don’t know unless possible house show matches a televised match after WM 8 I know Bigalow/Kamala had a televised All American exclusive after WM 9

The Rock vs. Steve Austin vs. HHH at Survivor Series 1999 that got cancelled because of Austin's injury. The match never took place at any point after Austin's return in late 2000.

United States champion Dustin Rhodes vs. Ron Simmons at SuperBrawl 3. To the best of my knowledge, they never wrestled each other during their time in WCW.
At the same show, The Rock & Roll Express vs. The Wrecking Crew. WCW replaced the Crew with The Heavenly Bodies, and Rage and Fury vanished shortly after.
International champion Rick Rude vs. Vader at Slamboree ‘94–canceled after Rude’s career-ending back injury in Japan.

If you want to get technical, any SSeries match were at least one participant got replaced.

No, and I believe GCW has said that match is off the table for them to book, for whatever reason, hence why it didn't happen at Spring Break this year. AEW might eventually get to run it. |
