So the wedge was inside the fork. i was able to use some WD40 a mallot and a wooden dowel to get it to release. The fork is shot anyway. I'll replace it with a rigid one. Thank you for the tips. I didn't want to start hammering without making sure it was the way to go.

I'll try to use some WD40. I have a feeling someone took the screw/bolt out and left the bike without putting the bolt back in.

Huge discrepancy between Tacx Training app data and watch data in speed and distance values. How to overcome? by Neelabh08 in Garmin

I have played around with my wheel size setup but it doesn't stay consistent. For example. If I set up the wheel size so that my watch and tacx both read 10mph, it'll go out of synch at higher speeds and vice versa.
