I'm having issues getting the front brake rotors removed. Everything else is off (calipers, brackets, etc) are these pressed on or is there a trick to them? 2010 gmc terrain

I tried smacking it with a hammer and it doesn't seem to be rusted. More like something is holding it on. I've done rotors many times but haven't run into this before.

Sorry my mistake remove the oblt holding it on it may be tapered so you may have to clean rust offf to find it. I've shown a pic included. It will be between two fo the studs. There is only one bolt.
