Put a bandana or piece of cloth between pliers and axle so as not to scratch your throw

If the Axel is bent, you should be good.

You will need a new Axel.

Can you get the bearing off so we can seethe Axel post?

If the post is bent, may be lights out.

I agree. Try a Axel out of a different yoyo if you dont have spares. Keep us posted.

Dont throw any other yoyos though.
