When someone says "sus promesas cayeron en papel mojado". That means that he did not carry out their promises.
"Papel mojado" is something that it isn't useful. For examples: his promises are not useful because he did not carry out them.
It is very similar to: saco roto. "Todo cayó en saco roto".
You are saying that everything was useless.
I have just found a definition in the dictionary:
el contrato es papel mojado
the contract isn’t worth the paper it’s written on
Here are some definitions with "saco roto"
sus consejos cayeron en saco roto
nobody took any notice of his advice, his advice went unheeded o fell on stony ground;
estos errores no deben caer en saco roto
we should learn from these mistakes;
En paises como Singapura, el papel higénico es siempre mojado - por la humedad!
wet paper?
