You'll be surprised of what kind of theories are discussed outside of this wiki. Like on Tumblr or the RWBYreddit. It's surprising how fans can find out the truth with so little information like how Monty said, problem is, that is a double edge sword. They come up with good theories, but also with terrible ones. For example, there were three for this particular scene:


 * Yang and Weiss were fighting in the tournament. The fights for tournament have random places and Team RWBY and SSSN just happened to be sent to the place where a giant robot was causing troubles and that's how they got involved in the fight against the WF.


 * Either Weiss or Yang turn out to be antagonists and one of them tries to kill the other.


 * They were working together to fight the WF mech and what happened is that Weiss created some ice in the floor so that Yang could punch in with her fire and create a cloud curtain to hide from the mech.

The last one was the one discussed in this wiki but the others (which are really crazy but people still believe it) were discussed on other forums. That's why I love this wiki, people take things like theories or evidence (sounds, images, trailers, quotes) very serious when they come up with headcanons.
