Hi

Im trying to remove the motherboard, I've removed all screws and stuff, and the motherboard flexes everywhere, but it's still stuck. I have a feeling it's got something to do with the IO, but I'm not sure

Some IO shield have 'grounding tabs', ensure these are not pushed into the motherboard:

Just double check you got all screws. Some cases have a 'post' in the middle of the case. Kind of a metal rod in place of a standoff, which can make it a bit harder to remove the motherboard.

Can you give a closeup ppic of your mobo so that we can see more clearly what the issue is?

Ignore if you have already solved it..
