Former TUF cast member Alex Schoenauer is now a stuntman and one of his auditions didn’t go as planned.

According to a report by TMZ, Schoenauer was shot from the back with live ammunition while auditioning for “SEAL Team” back in September 2018 in Southern California. Schoenauer claims he was told to to burst through a door with a stuntwoman while both of them were carrying semi-automatic assault rifles. When the stuntwoman fired her gun, he was struck through the upper back.

He has now filed a lawsuit against JMP Productions and everyone involved including the stunt co-ordinator, who he claims arranged for there to be live ammo, as well as the stuntwoman.

According the lawsuit, the bullet exited through his upper arm/shoulder. The injuries weren’t life threatening, but per TMZ, the 43-year-old did “suffer nerve damage and range of motion loss in his left arm from the injury.”

Schoneauer retired from mixed martial arts in 2009 with a 15-10 record. He was notably a cast member of the inaugural season of The Ultimate Fighter.

Chael Sonnen Expects Daniel Cormier vs. Stipe Miocic Rematch To Last Longer

Chael Sonnen does not expect Daniel Cormier vs. Stipe Miocic II to go the same way as the first, at least in terms of a first-round stoppage. Cormier and Miocic will clash for the heavyweight title in the main event of UFC 240 on August 17. They first met at UFC 226 last summer which […]

Chael Sonnen does not expect Daniel Cormier vs. Stipe Miocic II to go the same way as the first, at least in terms of a first-round stoppage.

Cormier and Miocic will clash for the heavyweight title in the main event of UFC 240 on August 17. They first met at UFC 226 last summer which saw Cormier knock Miocic out in the first round to become the heavyweight champion.

Over a year on, they will finally meet again, and Sonnen would be extremely surprised if it didn’t go past the first round this time:

“I think that we do have a different fight,” Sonnen said in a recent YouTube video (via BJ Penn). “I really do. Do we have a different outcome? Let them go figure it out. But I think we’re going to get some minutes.

I would be beyond stunned either way should this end in the first round. It was a shocker when it did the first time. I think we’re gonna see some minutes here.”

Sonnen even expects Miocic to come out guns blazing, especially with all the trash talk that has occurred between the two and the delay in getting a rematch finalized:

“I don’t think you’re gonna see a big feeling out process by Stipe,” Sonnen explained. “I think that you probably will by Daniel. He likes to do that. He likes to feel himself out in the first couple spots.

I think Stipe’s gonna come out, I think Stipe’s a little bit angry for the first time in his career.”

Who do you see winning the rematch?
