Ruby is the "Main character", there's no denying that. What I (and I'd imagine others) are hoping is that just because she's the main character and has a bit of extra focus on her, that doesn't mean she should necessarily have much more success than the others. Having an embarrassing defeat in the tournament would be a good start. Yup. They need to introduce a new character from Atlas or Vacuo and have them stomp her in the tournament. It would establish said minor character as a threat in the tournament and would give whoever beat him (Ren, Jaune or Blake could all use the boost for different reasons) an extra helping of badass factor. There are two people who are too obvious and a tad cliche to win the tournament. Sadly I think they might end up fighting one another in the finals...

Also  I think Blake vs. Yang would be an interesting finals pairing. Would likely be the only chance we'd get to see the duo fight as well given Yang's generally overly caring nature and Blake being quite laid back. I don't see any way for the two to really come to blows naturally especially with the two being partners.
