HOLLYWOOD, Feb. 8 (UPI) -- Wrestler Stone Cold Steve Austin filed a $185 million suit against ex-girlfriend Tess Broussard alleging she threatened him with a gun and stabbed his lawyer.

The former World Wrestling Entertainment champion, whose real name is Steven James Williams, filed the countersuit in response to the $20 million malicious arrest suit that Broussard brought against Austin, Celebrity Justice reports.

Broussard was arrested last year after reportedly stabbing Austin's attorney in the leg with a steak knife on the evening breakup discussions took place at a Beverly Hills, Calif., restaurant. Broussard said she was framed and the attorney hurt himself.

The countersuit also accuses the actress of once putting a gun in Austin's mouth before pointing it at his friends, members of the Los Lonely Boys band, Celebrity Justice said.
