The "Biggest, Baddest Card Ever" is how tonight's UFC 200 is billed and it's had its fair share of drama when it comes to the card itself.
And there's plenty of cardboard to be found for it, too, with Topps on site for the UFC Expo with promo cards (though not as many as it had planned due to the Jon Jones-forced card change) and it will have even more cardboard with the launch of Topps Now UFC with this event.
But the one player on the card tonight in Las Vegas who doesn't have any new cards -- but should figure into the show prominently win or lose -- is current WWE fighter Brock Lesnar, who is making a one-time (or is it?) return to the Octagon with his organization's approval (or is it the sign of something more?) for the fight. (Update: Lesnar has been added to the Topps Now debut checklist after his win.)
He's got plenty of cardboard.

Topps Now is coming to the Octagon -- and it won't be the only new cardboard from UFC 200.
The company revealed Tuesday that it's launching the real-time cardboard service for MMA fans starting with the event tomorrow. Images of those cards will be available when they launch.
“UFC is the perfect fit to incorporate into the Topps Now program immediately,” said Jeff Heckman, Topps' Director of New Product Development & eCommerce Marketplace. “Every weekend there are great fights happening; we have seen a number of title changes over the last several months. Topps Now is the best way to capture these moments and give UFC fans a collectible they will treasure.”

Topps' UFC trading cards have helped usher MMA more into collectors' minds as those who focused on the traditional sports saw the dollar signs attached to the autographs and Relics of notable names inside the Octagon.
But a visit to the UFC Store might do that even better as UFC sells fight-used memorabilia directly to the public on a first-come, first-served format.
The fight-used gloves above, for example? They were worn by Miesha Tate during the UFC on FOX Dillashaw vs. Barao 2 card where she downed Jessica Eye via unanimous decision. They'll cost you $2,999.99 to add them to your stash.
Gloves, shorts, fight-sponsor banners, walkout shirts, walkout caps and other gear are all available.

World Wrestling Entertainment has been known for some controversial moments in television history that included intense matches, risqué segments, countless "Stone Cold" Steve Austin middle fingers, exploding limos, Katie Vick and plenty more.
But this? This is just ugly.
WWE launched a line of ugly sweater-inspired sweatshirts on Friday, giving those gatherings a new twist on the trend of hideous holiday attire -- a twist with some muscle and some attitude.
