Yep you needed that caliper. Definitely stuck from your description.

And the heat probably contributed to the bearing failure. 15+ year old grease, plus that thermal stresss.... yeah could have smoked it.

The smoke may have just been from the brake. But as the others noted the bearing race may not have seated fully, and then seated itself deeper under compression, loosening the bearing.

Good luck with it, I'm sure you'll sort it all out.
