Well, let's take your Grimlock vs. Soundwave fight. If I were writing the story, I'd do something like this:

"I don't beleive any of us should go in alone," Optimus said, "I'll need back up."

Suddenly, a deafenfing guitar riff echoed through the valley, causing the Autobots to collapse in pain. As their receveivers stopped ringing, a set of metal footsteps could be heard tramping towards them, and into view strode a bulky, blue bot, with the Decepticon emblem on his chest, and his face obscurd by a crimson red visor. In his servos, he held a red guitar, also bearing the Decepticon sigil.

"Who are you?" demanded Optimus, drawing his energon axe in preparation for a fight.

"Soundwave superior," replied the 'Con, his visor flashing with every monotone syllable, "Autobots, inferior."

"Me, Grimlock, hate music... Me Grimlock CRUSH!"

The massive mech slammed his fists into the ground, causing them to retract, turning his arms into meaty legs. Next his head retracted into his body, and his legs swung upwards, combing and then splitting apart into a massive maw. His Tyrant-Class Cybersaur form now complete, he bellowed a fearsome roar, and charged directly at Soundwave.

"Grim, wait!" cried Elita holding out her hand, only for it to be caught by Bumblebee.

"Big guy can handle himself," the smaller bot reassured her, "We need to get to that core. Oh, and only I call him Grim."

Optimus hesitated for a bit, before realizing Bumblebee was right. "Let's go. Roll out!" he commanded, before shifting into his semi-truck and barreling into the darkness. Elita and Bumblebee followed suit, leaving Grimlock in a one-on-one.

Soundwave shook his head, vison blurred from the impact of getting flung into a wall by a 10,000 ton monster. Which, of course, was charging straight at him.

"Time to change my tune," he thought to himself. He tossed his guitar in his servo, now holding it like a club. As the Dinobot in front of him neared chomping distance, Soundwave spun around, whacking the side of it's face with his guitar. Grimlock stumbled, and collided with the wall, providing Soundwave the opening he needed.

"Ravage, deploy!" he shouted. Immediately, part of his back detached and fell off, before straightening it's legs and revealing a cat-like head.

"Operation: Obliteration," commanded Soundwave, and his minion pounced on Grimlock's back and bit down hard right on his neck plates.

The Dinobot roared in pained, and tried to swat the pesky creature off, but his stubby alt-mode arms availed him not.

Soundwave leaped into the air, and brought both his fists down upon his foe's head. When the dust from the impact settled, the dinobot was finally silent.

"Ravage, return," he ordered, and the cat-'con leaped back onto it's master's back. Soundwave set his visor on the cave Optimus and the rest of his band had ventur-

"RROOOAAAARRR!" bellowed Grimlock, knocking the Decepticon off his feet with a tailspin. The massive oaf felt that Bumblebee would be proud of him for using his brain to "play dead". Grimlock grabbed the Decepticon in his jaws, then spun around to build up momentum, before releasing his hold and hurling Soundwave into the distance.

"Me, Grimlock, told you me hate music!" he shouted, regardless of whether or not he could be heard.

Hearing screeching tires, Grimlock turned back towards the cave as his partner and his two new friends drove out.

There! Not only does that add some length to your story, but also introduces Ravage.
