Weavile would be easy prey to any resistant attacker. My Haxorus, even considering it's weakness against Ice, and no STAB for Fighting, could easily OHKO it with Brick Break. That's because at level 71, he has 300 attack already.
Tyranitar seems like a good choice, but I would really recommend a defensive power house like Umbreon. You can use it as sponge, and with moves like Double Team and Flash, you can render any attacker useless as well.

Well that's the thing about Weavile, it's not meant to take any attack. It's paper thin defenses and 120/125 Attack/Speed distribution means one thing: Revenge killer. When Weavile does hit something, it's going to hit fast, and it's going to hit hard. I'm not really looking for anything else from her. Spiritomb and Drapion were EV trained to get the most out of their defenses.
And the Double Team/Flash combo is just mean. No wonder things like that were banned from Smogon.

Revenge killer does sound nice, though for that job you'll probably end up relying a lot on Night Slash right? Night Slash effectivness depends a lot on whether the Critical hits or not. And Weavile speed can be countered with a Quick Claw, though it isn't the most reliable of techniques. I myself never liked nor used Weavile, mostly because I always found them easy to be countered and killed.
Now Spiritomb, that's a huge obstacle. Thankfully I maxed Haxorus Attack EV's and with his Adamant nature, there isn't much that can resist his Outrage attack, even with high defenses. Fighting on the Battle Subway, a level 50 Steelix gets cut down to 1/2 of his HP with a single Outrage hit, and that's being not effective.
