It was just an example, it doesn't have to be partners. After all, RWBY & JNPR have similar fighting styles. For example:

Ruby/Nora -> Schyte and Sledgehammer, both giant weapons.

Weiss/Jaune -> Swordsman and Swordswoman

Blake/Ren -> Fast moves and short combos.

Yang/Pyrrha -> Definitely the strongest of their teams.

I know it's a cliche but it's not that bad. There is a reason why it's called cliche, beacuse no matter how much is used, people love them anyway. I choose partners because just like it happened to Roman, it took two hunters in training to actually hit him, and they would have lost if Ruby haven't interfered.

If Roman is strong enough to take now Blake & Sun, then, it could take an entire team to defeat one of the bad guys.
