The hoses from the tank are open ended in the wheel well now, and I removed the valve around the filler neck. Nothing has worked. I've even blown compressed air through the lines to the tank, and eventually with enough pressure it will vent, however it still won't fill normally.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

Deleting the EVAP system was never going to correct this issue, and will cause issues when going to annual inspection as the removal will cause the car to code during the I/M Readiness test.
