Ruby-Weiss seems to be the most likely step, but they could take a less obvious route. I am thinking of Ruby and Blake with Yang and Weiss as being an ideal approach. They could have Ruby build a strong relationship with Blake and remove her anxiety, perhaps even proving her quality by the two of them running away with it, while Weiss gets humbled by having to deal with Yang's fiery hostlity.

With JNPR, it depends on if they intend to focus on their activity. Jaune and Pyrrha seem a likely match-up to focus on, but then it means Ren-Nora and thus nothing of particular interest since their dynamic has already been sufficiently established. It is possible, though, as they could be a pairing that gets less focus while developing the other character dynamics. Not sure how interesting a Ren-Jaune and Nora-Pyrrha match-up would be, though a Nora-Jaune and Pyrrha-Ren matchup seems appealing.

As far as Pyyrha's personality, she seems to be more of a meathead with Jaune being a sort of country bumpkin. That is how I see it and it could be the point of the gag in her name. She is a high-achieving athlete, but this comes at the expense of her ability to form meaningful connections with others because she has focused on building on her successes. I actually thought Ruby and Blake and Yang and Weiss was a good combo, Weiss ends up being put in her place

Weiss: un-be-LEIVABLE! I'm stuck with you! This isn't how everything was supposed to happen, it's supposed to be...

Yang: uggh, look princess, I don't like you and you don't like me, but that doesn't mean you can just mouth off to ME like that, as far as I'm concerned we're stuck together, I've accepted that but if you would like to complain then by all means (takes out EC) talk. to. the. hand. GOT IT!

Weiss: 0_o... yes sir....

and I did speculate what would happen if Ren and Nora did pair up (with Nora's determination and energy it's bound to happen), Ren will be minding his own buissness until Nora frightens him off a steep hill and into mud as she begins rambling how they made eye contact.
