Question HELP!!! Car wont roll!

I had to pull my car from the shop to my house because of problems with the mechanic and when we were on our way home the left rear tire came off. The studs broke and now that I replaced the studs and put the rim back on the car is REALLY hard to roll when before it would roll easy. The hand-brake is off and I have no engine or tranny in the car. What might be the problem?

my first guesses would be the axle bearing and the axle itself probably got messed up from the tire falling off.

I really dont know. The car was at the shop for 2 years and I just got tired and picked it up. I never checked the lug nuts before I left.
