Nicely done! My thoughs exactly(although I don't think it would end up with Weiss being injured or Blake being near expulsion). I imagine the match would be stopped before things got too out of control. Similar to Kakashi stepping in at the last minute when Saskue and Naruto tried to take each other out in a sparring match. What I think will happen is that there will be a whole chapter that takes a break from the overarching plot so it can be solely devoted to building and developing relationships between the characters. I'm probably going to get vilified for saying this, but I thinkThe Legend of Korra did this really well, by having a whole episode to grind away at all the inter-character tension. While Korra used Pro-bending as the drive, RWBY will probably do the same thing with training floor exercises. For example, Weiss and Blake get into a heated argument just before a match, and Team RWBY does really badly. Weiss and Blake would blame each other, Yang would be furious that they weren't acting as a team, and Ruby would just be really sad and confused by all the bickering.

Eventually, it would all be resolved though. Perhaps in this case, Ruby and Yang get knocked out of the match, then Weiss and Blake are forced to put their differences aside so they can pull out a victory. Cap that with a little "D'awwww" moment at the end of the episode, and there you have it.
