That will work. Take a heavy drift and punch in on one end and pry outward with the idea of breaking it loose so you can grab it with a vise grip or pliers and finish getting it off. It really should be removed before the drum is installed, but you can't do that now. You need to lift the self adjusting arm off the star wheel with a small screw driver and use another flat blade screw drive to turn the wheel to back the adjustment off a little. Use a flashlight to see the wheel so you know where to position your screwdrivers. I always adjust tight until the drum wont turn and shoes are set and then back off until it will spin with the slightest of shoe contact. When you remove a drum you should have to back off the adjustment. Otherwise you will ruin the brake shoe hold down hardware.
