Um. Maybe put some WD-40 on it, get a flat head screw driver and go around it and tap the screwdriver while its on the bearing race with a hammer.

This should get it out...

Happened to my mates little brother, but it was already out a bit so i could get it out with a screwdriver.
You should cut it, go to a steel mill or someplace like that and see if they can cut a slit in it.
 
Common sense man. Don't take a blade to it unless it's a semi-precision tool like a Dremel with a cut-off wheel. Use a screw driver to get it out. Put the tip of a flathead screw driver in the groove of the bearing case where the ball bearings would usually glide. Then tap it out with the wheel in a vice or in a secure spot. If that doesn't work make several small slots in the bearing race with a Dremel or a similar tool and break it apart with a flathead and a hammer.

So the bearing case is perfectly aligned with the inside of the wheel and has no lip for him to get a screw driver on and hit out.

What a stupid bump. Maybe if you uninstalled them correctly you wouldn't be saying "FUCK EAGLE."
