Corey Lajoie who has his run-in with the ‘bad boy’ earlier last month also does understand Gragson's mindset, as the Alva native has sort of developed a notorious reputation over the years for being aggressive. Lajoie said, "Yes, I can understand Noah's frustration and he thinks that he crowded him into the fence, now he's like okay, this is 2 out of the last 3 weeks, I’ve got to go say something to him, he's a habitual line-stepper as Dave Chappelle says so he wanted to go have some worlds with him."
