Sandow failing to cash in in a ridicoulous fashion comes to mind.
edit: I mean, seriously, he was all about biding his time for the perfect opportunity, then goes on to cash-in on a half-beaten john cena only to lose to a single AA. I couldn't suspend my disbelief with michael cole going all like "wow, that was awesome, it was a good effort by sandow". I'm all like "uh, no, it wasn't, he lost to a tired and beaten champion when pretty much everyone else succeded."
It was impossible to suspend disbelief and think that sandow was an actual threat to anyone near main-event or top-midcard after that
