Sometime they can be rusted to the knuckle itself. (Which happened to me) My suggestion is place a block of wood, or same diameter as the wheel bearing and hit it from behind with a hammer.

I brought it to a shop and what they did was, they use those huge sockets and start beating it with a hammer. It popped out just fine.
