Flash Grenade question

Eric

Flash grenade:
Weapon. Strike: Combat Ends. If the opposing minion is a vampire, he
or she is tapped and does not untap as normal on his or her untap
phase. If the bearer is a vampire and the grenade is used at close
range, the bearer is also tapped and does not untap as normal on his
or her next untap phase. Burn this weapon after use.

Majesty:
Combat. [pre] Strike: combat ends. [PRE] As above, and this vampire
untaps before combat ends.

Is it ever possible in a Majesty versus Flash Grenade situation for
the Vampire playing Majesty to end up untapped? I understand that both
effects resolve simultaneously, but what if vampire A has a Flash
Grenade and plays Bum's Rush against vampire B who doesn't block the
Rush. Then B is untapped when both effects go off simultaneously.
Wouldn't B tap from Flash Grenade then untap from Majesty?

Assuming that the effect from the Flash Grenade goes off (and isn't lost
to a Telepathic Tracking, say), no.

Majesty's untap occurs in combat. Flash Grenade's tap occurs after
combat.

The additional effects don't. S:CE+something has the something occur
after combat. (Except for untaps, but Majesty is explicit on that.)

No.
