As soon as I looked at the title I thought LG had made this deck, it looks good though

I remember my worst match up was a RG monsters. Anything I can add to help stop them?

If it weren't standard I'd recommend {Damnation} to deal with monsters decks. Instead I offer unto you the idea of {Gild}

I'm currently building a grixis deck as well, but what is its general theme? Mass burn and removal with counters ? Just not sure how to build a shell to start with.

It's just basic kill control. Young Pyro , Jace, and Ætherling are win cons

 {Extinguish All Hope} or {Whelming Wave} could help with monsters

I think you should play extinguish all hope over cyclonic rift cause it doesn't hit any of your creatures and killing is better than bouncing

{Silence the Believers} is a very good card in the current meta I have been playing it in my bug deck and it is showing some good results.

Rift being an Instant is very relevant.
