====Animated series====
A gladiator and former champion of [[Kaon]], Groundpounder was imprisoned aboard the ''[[Alchemor]]'' with his [[Mini-Con]] manager [[Headlock (Transformers)|Headlock]] after he was caught cheating and went on a rampage. After escaping on [[Earth (Transformers)|Earth]], he set out to reestablish himself as a champion and quickly became involved in a demolition derby-like event. His activities soon drew the attention of [[Bumblebee]]'s team of [[Autobots]], and [[Grimlock]] was called upon to face Groundpounder in the ring, where he won after a tough battle. Groundpounder was later freed by [[Steeljaw]] and recruited to join his Decepticon forces, which led to a rematch with Grimlock. However, Grimlock and his teammates succeeded in defeating Groundpounder despite his wide array of powerful combat techniques; Groundpounder also had an [[Excavator]] alternate mode.

Groundpounder was voiced by [[John DiMaggio]].
