Cases in point: The hardest part is the night in 2010 and 99 in the shade in 2013.

So, expert people on the fields of Bon Jovi, do you know which other songs were rehearsed, but never played in an actual show?
1. Is it known that Hearts Breaking Even was actually rehearsed? Yeah, Jon stated in an early track-by-track interview that he looked forward to playing it live, but I've never read that it actually got rehearsed for live shows.
As Eddie said, Fields Of Fire was played acoustic by Jon in 1993 and by the band for (as far as I remember) the "An Evening With Bon Jovi" concerts (on both nights), but didn't make the final cut.

2. I remember Wild Is The Wind allegedly being rehearsed for the shows at Wembley Stadium in 1995, but then not getting played that year at all. In 2008, 99 In The Shade was done at soundcheck (I think in Australia). Never heard about it in 2013 (but didn't follow the tour that much anymore either).
