Well i found that the was rust but more than that there was lots of brake dust that found its way inside the hub/rotor mating surfaces. When the PB Blaster worked that out gaps appeared making it easy to get the rotor off.

But i am 6'1'' and weight 230lbs so i am not a small guy. But still i kept banging on the rotor for along time until it finally broke free.

There was alot of rust on the hub. Maybe its because it rains alot in seattle area?

At any rate i wanted to share my experience with others here. There are alot of nice people here helping each other out.
