No. Combat in and of itself does not tap. You must block to be tapped.
(Or take an action, or as otherwise specified on the cards).

You can't "remain" untapped if you weren't untapped in the first place.
A vampire in combat who plays superior majesty may pay one blood
to untap - this is completely oblivious of any prior tapped status.

Officially, no.

Combat itself does not tap a minion. Your minion would enter combat
untapped and end combat untapped.

Yes. Majesty allows a payment for untapping. It doesn't matter that the
vamp was tapped before the combat was blocked.

I believe that the current ruling is that the Prince or Justicar can untap
and attempt to block only if the action is at some sort of stealth. So a
normal bleed at 0 stealth would not allow the vamp to use Domain. If it
were at additional stealth, then the Price could use Domain.

If my untapped minion gets bum's rushed by my opponent, will she (my minion)
be tapped after the combat is over?
ALSO, if I have a tapped minion who wakes and successfully blocks, and then
uses majesty (superior) as a strike, is she allowed to remain untapped after
the action has concluded?
One more question: Am I allowed to play a second tradition if I don't need
the intercept? I've read that you can't increase intercept if you already
have enough intercept to block. My justicar has enough intercept to block,
but her main problem is she's tapped. If the action she's blocking is at
zero stealth, can I play a second tradition?
That's all for now.

Only if she blocks the bum's rush. Combat does not tap minions. Acting
and sometimes reacting do.

Yes.

Nope. You must actually need the intercept also. So to use it you need
a tapped prince or justicar and you can block an action that is at +1 or
more stealth.
