Ya got to be bold with the hammer to get the races out!
There are usually 2 or 4 cut outs in the hub around the back of the race, I usually crisscross, hitting in one spot then the other to keep the race from 'cocking' and jamming.
BUT
I would clean the bearings good, and inspect for damage.

Once clean, and if no flaws are found, I would test fit everything and figure out WTF is going on. Then pack with good grease and install with a new seal.
If damage is found, I would replace the race and bearing together.
I just sent a set of wheel bearings to New England Gear polishing for REM treatment, I will post a review when I get them back.
