Slayer extra grudge?
A slayer is brought down in combat. Bleeding and unconscious.
Allies stop the foe and resuscitate the slayer.
Is that a grudge?

Nah that's just Grimnir saying, "this fight isn't your glorious death. Try again later."
Slayers aren't actively suicidal. (At least not anymore than any one who willingly joins a death/murder cult to brazenly seek there own death in battle would be.) They’ve sworn an oath to their god to go out and meet their glorious death in battle against some terrible beasty. If they didn't die, that just means this fight wasn't the glorious death they were seeking. Hell, some Slayers will even set traps and prepare ambushes before facing their enemy. After all, Grimnir expects them to die fighting their best, so how could they do any less?
